Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

Anu Dixit, Ph.D., a National Institutes of Health fellow at Washington University, has identified the allergenic proteins of a little- known but major allergen that, unlike most allergens we're familiar with, is a potential health threat year-round. The allergen, Epicoccum nigrum (EN), is a fungus, not pollen from a flowering plant, and it can be found everywhere — from clothes, to drapes and air-conditioning ducts indoors, to leaves, plants, rocks and soil outdoors. Allergists have known for years that a limited range of fungi (interchange- ably referred to as molds) have allergenic properties. Dixit's study is the first to show that allergenicity to EN is a concern in two climatologically distinct areas of the country — St.

The engineering study provides a preclusion analysis which demonstrates that no other FM frequency in the reserve band is available for use at the vacant FM allocation coordinates, or within the allotment’s predicted 1 mV/m contour. The study also demonstrates that the proposed frequency will provide a first or a second NCE service to the prescribed minimum population in the community and the service area.
