Ne w Co u n t r y Ai rc h e c k /Me d i a b a s e Re p o r t e r We i g h t s These are the new weights for Country Aircheck/Mediabase Country Reporters, based on audience figures from the Spring 2009 Arbitron ratings. PPM weights use a three month average of April-May-June AQH figures. The weights are calculated by this formula: Market rank is multiplied by 10 and then added to the station’s AQH Persons. A station’s weight is determined by dividing that adjusted AQH by the leading Country station’s adjusted AQH. For this period, that station is KKGO/Los Angeles with an adjusted AQH of 33,620. Station Weight = (Market rank X 10) divided by 33,620. These new weights are effective with this week’s Country Aircheck/Mediabase Country chart.
