KIOI is Hot AC, I'm not sure why the website lists them as AC.Why does San Francisco has so many AC stations. Is there any diffrence bettween KIOI, KISQ and KOIT it terms of playlist
Each website that publishes ratings determines the format names for each station. It's their decision how to name each one.KIOI is Hot AC, I'm not sure why the website lists them as AC.
Ratings will improve overtime as the Hispanic population ages in the Bay Area.Latino Mix is barely registering. They really need to kill that format or go back to the 50% English, 50% Spanish. The ratings won't get any better.
95.7 The Game will never bring in ratings. Everyone in the Bay goes to KNBR for sports talk. That's the way it's always been. If KNBR ever got the Warriors back, The Game would be finished.
Just the opposite. Spanish language media depends on an ongoing arrival of first generation immigrants who are dependent on programming "in their own language". The longer a person is here, or by the second generation, the move towards English language media is considerable.Ratings will improve overtime as the Hispanic population ages in the Bay Area.
I predict that within a couple of years, 95.7 will change formats yet again. Maybe if Audacy was smart, they could bring back 95.7 The Wolf! San Francisco would get their Country music station.Latino Mix is barely registering. They really need to kill that format or go back to the 50% English, 50% Spanish. The ratings won't get any better.

And KISQ is a soft ACKIOI is Hot AC, I'm not sure why the website lists them as AC.
Gabby Diaz is live on both KIIS-FM and on WiLD 94.9.I don't live in San Francisco but listen on Amazon Echo and the apps. And I'm curious about why Wild 94.9 consistently beats 99.7 NOW. Anyone have thoughts on this?
Also, when Gabby Diaz moved to L.A. to do 11AM-3PM on 102.7 Kiss FM, it was announced she would continue doing her PM drive shift on Wild 94.9 live from L.A. But that meant she would be on the air non-stop from 11AM-7PM, which sounds kind of difficult. Anyone know if her Wild shift is tracked?
KIOI has always been a gold-leaning Hot AC, which may cause Nielsen to list them as a Mainstream AC.KIOI is Hot AC, I'm not sure why the website lists them as AC.
Didn't you read David's post? The stations' format descriptions are determined by the websites that publish the 6+ ratings, not by Nielsen itself.KIOI has always been a gold-leaning Hot AC, which may cause Nielsen to list them as a Mainstream AC.
Kind of mixed it up a little bit, given that Radio-Online and RadioInsight both list KIOI as an AC, rather than a Hot AC, in the PPM listings of their respective websites.Didn't you read David's post?
