LA Radio Ratings Question 1987-2012...

[Marv-L.A.]

In light of 2012 marking the 25-year anniversary of KPWR going from nonexistent to #1 in less than a year, and displacing KIIS-FM from the ratings penthouse (temporarily) in the process in the winter or spring of 1987, how many other radio stations besides those two, KOST, KLVE & KFI have topped the ratings (12+) here over the past quarter-century?

Thanks!

I could be wrong but I swear there was a time in the late 90s that KROQ tied KIIS in the books.

3. KSCA 13
4. KOST 11
5. KLAX 9
6. KIIS 8
7. KROQ 4
8. KFI 1

There have been 48 monthly ratings periods since PPM started in L.A. in July 2008. (Again, the total will exceed 48 because of ties.)

2. KOST 8
3. KFI 6
4. KRTH 1
