Las Vegas Talk/Sports on FM vs AM

Why isn't KXNT AM and FM combined together in ratings? Aren't they supposed to be a simulcast? If they aren't a simulcast of each other, then what was the point of all this?

They can be combined under single line reporting only if the simulcast existed for all 28 days of a ratings book in PPM.
 
They will probably remain separate in the ratings because they only simulcast on weekdays. On weekends, the FM runs sports while the AM runs infomercials and business oriented programming.
 
I noticed that KXNT never made some of the changes they said they would such as moving Mark Levin earlier and starting Coast to Coast at 10PM.
 
Jay- I agree, I think they should have kept Coast-to-Coast at the regular start time of 10 PM. I sometimes choose to listen to George Noory on KKOB 770/Albuquerque or on any of the other syndicated stations that carry Coast, if I go to bed early... I personally don't care for Mark Levin.
 
ken, I know someone else who listens to Coast every night at 10 on KKOB. Their signal really booms into Vegas at night,it sounds better than some of the local AM stations. You can also hear Noory at 10 on KFI. Yet on most nights KKOB comes in stronger, it wasn't always this way.

How about KWWN? I noticed they are the new #1 AM station and didn't know if that included the FM simulcast or not.
 
Per Arbitron, the KWWN translator is rated along with the AM as it is 100% simulcast. Theoretically we could run a small amount of seperate programming but we don't plan on it. This is a relatively low powered translator, not a full blown FM station.
