Magic stays at # 1 for a an eighth ratings period in a row, down 9.3 to 9.0

Sunny holds at #3 and wobbles up 7.1 to 7.2
Real Radio 104.1 enters the Top 5 at #4 with a nice climb from 5.1 to 6.7

K92 is technically down 5.0 (5.5 with stream) to 5.3 as they also gain Single Line Reporting status

Mix 105.1 is down again, trending, 4.4 to 3.8 to 3.6
Hits 96.5 is down 4.4 to 3.4
Both AM talkers have a combined share of only 2.1 (WDBO is down to a 1.5 and WFLF holds at a whopping 0.6)
Kaliente drops all the way to a 1.1 (from a 1.7) and gets beaten again by the WPYO Stream, which is down 1.9 to 1.4
A ghost from the past shows up this month with WLOQ making the coveted 0.1 showing for the first time in quite a while!

>> A ghost from the past shows up this month with WLOQ making the coveted 0.1 showing for the first time in quite a while! <<

Funny how some of us still remember the original 103.1 WLOQ. In reality it's 107.7 WMGF HD2.
The actual WLOQ call letters are currently on a K-Love station out of Oil City, PA.
Looking just above that 0.1 at 0.3 is 810 WRSO which I have not seen in the ratings in quite a while.
Nielsen is showing their name as Fox Sports Radio 810 & 97.9.
I haven't been listening enough to hear if they still air that sweeper that says they're on 97.9 in Kissimmee.
Fox Sports Radio hasn't been on 97.9 since around December of 2024.
What's been on that translator since around December of 2024 is Retro 97.9, fed via WRUM HD-3 which is also at a 0.3, and has recently re-added English songs back into the mix again.
Guess they learned their lesson.

Ha, small world about the Oil City station! Before the K-Love flip they were WKQW and our only real competition when I worked for the Northwest PA Forever cluster. My first PD was their final PD before the K-Love sale.
 
I also noticed, thanks to the new graphs and charts, that Orlando has an 18 share for unsubscribed stations. Z88.3 famously doesn't encode for PPM, Cumulus isn't in the market and I doubt Party has more than a 3 or 4 share.

Does anyone else not subscribe? Or would a lot of this be folks listening to Tampa and/or any Daytona Beach stations that may encode.

There are still a few signals from out of town markets that can be heard here depending on where you live.
There are also several college, religious and ethnic stations on AM & FM here that also do not subscribe.
I'd be willing to bet a nice chunk of that 18 share belongs to WPOZ though.
Enough to place them in the top 7, 6+.
I'm only basing that on the ratings they had when they did subscribe.

The Tampa stations with a big enough signal to be heard in the Orlando market do en code because Tampa is a PPM market.

WPCV 97.5 has got to be up there in the ratings amongst the non-subscribers. Their signal is strong in most of the Orlando market.
