The methodology is nearly the same as you found in the Spring '85 edition of American Radio. Since 99% of you are also subscribers to the regular edition of American Radio, please refer to that book for more information. One area I might clarify - the diaries line differs slightly from that of other issues of American Radio: Diaries: 279/258/58.61% The first number is the total in -tab diaries. The second number is the number of people (12 +) in the metro for each diary returned. The third number is the percentage of in -tab diaries against the total number of diaries sent into the market. www.americanradiohistory.com LEADING STATIONS IN ARBITRON CONDENSED MARKETS-' STATION MARKET SHARE FORMAT GROUP OWNER 1.
