  • Issue 209 Music & Mornings Many Factors Determine the Amount of Music a Country Station Plays in Morning Drive
    September 13, 2010 Issue 209 Music & Mornings Many factors determine the amount of music a Country station plays in morning drive. The competitive situation, spot load, caliber of air talent and even a change in morning shows are among them. Most recently, PPM ratings have led a number of programmers to increase the amount of music heard between 6-10am. For purposes of this week’s study, we looked at a variety of market situations to see how many songs were played in morning drive on a Wednesday for the last 12 months (excluding December 2009). As always, all airplay information comes from our friends at Mediabase 24/7. Stand Alone PPM Markets KKGO/Los Angeles has added a couple of songs per hour in the Medal Heads: “Not bad for an old radio guy!” says WGH-FM/AM/Norfolk last three months. It averaged about 12 songs between 6-9am up Dir. of Programming and Operations John Shomby. He and his niece Sara until about three months ago when it bumped to 14-15 songs in that (left) cheese for the camera after running the Virginia Beach Rock & Roll Half Marathon. At right (l-r), WWFG/Salisbury-Ocean City morning host time frame. Its 9am hour has stayed steady at 14 tunes throughout John Trout (5k), MM Jefferson Ward and Clear Channel’s Diane Walsh the last year.

Each earned a podium finish in their age groups. has aired six-seven songs in the first hour of morning drive, seven- eight songs in the second hour, eight-nine songs in the third hour and McGraw’s Super In Dallas 10-11 songs in the final drive-time hour.

  • Sturgis Elementary School Parking Lot Concern
    Sturgis Elementary School Meade School District 46-1 “To Build Knowledge and Skills for Success Today and Tomorrow A NOTE FROM THE PRINCIPAL CHANTAL LIGTENBERG Supervision on Playground I have noticed some students being dropped earlier than we have supervisors. Just a reminder that the supervisors are not on the playground until 7:45 a.m. Breakfast students can be dropped off as early as 7:30 a.m. at the cafeteria doors. Inclement Weather/School Closings On mornings when school is cancelled or a late start occurs, every attempt will be made to notify the following radio and television stations by 6-6:30 a.m.: radio stations BHB, KOTA, KAT, FOX, KIMM, KKMK, KKLS, KRCS, KSQY, KIQK, KTOQ, KDDX, KZZI, KDSJ, and television stations KOTA, KEVN, KNBN, and KELO. In addition to the announcements on select radio and television stations, parents will also be notified by telephone via School Messenger (previously known as School Reach) in the event of school closing or early dismissal. School Messenger messages will come from the district level. Please let the school office know if you have changed phone numbers recently so we may make those updates in our system. School Attendance Attending school might not be a big deal for you now, but the consequences can have a lasting impact on you. Check out the attendance facts from our friends at Attendance Works. • Absenteeism in the first month of school can predict poor attendance throughout the school year. Half the students who miss 2-4 days in September go on to miss nearly a month of school.

    August 13, 2012, Issue 307 Song Counts: Clock Watching When it comes to music, the titles heard on Country radio nationwide are generally a common thread, but how many are played each hour and how they’re packaged is another story entirely – nowhere more so than in mornings. In week two of Country Aircheck’s morning-drive song count analysis, the focus turns to diary markets in competitive and stand-alone situations. Below we examine song counts and stopsets per hour, and how programmers are distributing each. Competitive markets offer interesting comparisons, particularly Oklahoma City and its four Country stations. Though ranked No. The Suite Life: Jake Owen and WMZQ/Washington’s Meg Stevens 50 by Arbitron and with Memphis (51) and Hartford (52) working about to settle in for Kenny Chesney’s set during the Brothers Of in PPM, the diary still prevails in OKC.
