Congrats to Hank!

Tied for #1 with WFMS. That's great in a PPM world. No chance of confusion from diary entries.
 
What happened to WIBC and WYXB? Looks to me like Emmis can only get one station right at a time.

Also, Q back in the top 3?
 
Has WFMS been #1 every month since PPM launched in Indy? June numbers could be extremely interesting.....
 
Congrats to Hank! WFMS messed up a dynasty and WLHK responded well. Now the big question...will Emmis start junking Hank up with sports broadcasts again or decide that being #1 is a better option? My analogy on music stations that air sports or all talk morning shows is that of a very successful gas station that decides to close the pumps for a few hours here and there to sell fresh veggies. Soon, no one will buy their gas or their veggies. Consistency is the hallmark of excellence they say :)

Well said Bob. Totally agree!

No. I'm certain that WYXB won the holiday 2011 book. It seems like WIBC may have won one book last spring by .1 or .2...
 
Even though sports often drives listeners away, radio operators often see the revenue it brings as being more valuable than the listeners it drives away.

Short sighted IMHO...much like that 2000 calorie milk shake that a person enjoys daily for 10 minutes and then spends weeks or months in the gym trying to undue the damage--often without success.
 
Once Wall Street got involved. radio operators started feeling the need to think shorter term, quarter to quarter, instead of long term.

Does Hank carry anything other than the Colts?
They Use to Carry the IU mens basketball games. but those got moved over to WIBC. the only time they carry anything other than the colts is if Butler Mens Basketball/IU Mens Basketball/Pacers play at the the same time where IU gets 93.1/Pacers 1070/Butler 97.1

but yes Hank only has the colts now
