It took a while but WNSH finally broke the 2.0 barrier in the big city. However, in M-S-U they really shot up, from a 1.8 to a 3.3. Could that mean that people in northern NJ do not associate 94.7 with its previous programming as much as before?

Nash is trickling in the right direction 6 months in. They may have broken a 2 on the math, but they are still in the same place overall and still short of a million in cume. They are making some inroads in the demos though. Wouldn't call it a 'success' yet, but if the morning show helps gain some more traction it will be.

I also noticed that WKMK has been staying the same at 1.0. So the big gain by Nash doesn't seem to be pulling anyone away from Thunder. Could this mean there are a lot of new country music listeners that may have turned away from some other formats?
 
WNSH isn't going to be a cume format, it's a TSL format in NYC. Those that listen, will, and will stay tuned in because they have nowhere else to go.

I wouldn't expect it to be a high cume station.

While TSL will certainly be higher proportionally, a class B station in this market airing essentially the 2nd most popular musical format in the US should break a million in cume.
 
Great to see Nash slowly seeing some growth - especially over in Jersey! It was quite a surprise to see them break a 3 share.

Also, you've got to give credit where credit is due to Jim Ryan. People complain that CBS-FM isn't as adventurous as it once was and that it sounds very bland and vanilla, but it seems to be working. Seeing such a strong showing in both 6+ and 25-54 is impressive.

I do miss their "A to Z" countdown and some of their other more "oh wow" Hall of Fame features and still think their audio/mic processing sounds absolutely awful after a gazillion tweaks, but hey, you can't argue with the numbers. Maybe they will finally de-throne Lite again.

On a side note, I really do wish they would get Randy Davis on board full-time. He sounds just as good as ever. I heard him filling in on Fresh 102.7, and he fit the format perfectly. Versatile jock with great timing and a warm, friendly sound. Good stuff.

The demographics and lifestyle of New York City and its metro area work against country music, no matter how much like pop it's become. It's a real leap from Taylor Swift -- who's from Pennsylvania has no twang or drawl in her voice -- to Brad Paisley for a New Yorker, who's more likely to stay with the pop station that's playing her big pop crossover hits about love and breakups than jump to Nash and hear a bunch of good ol' boys singing about fishin' and drinkin' and goin' to church on Sunday mornin'.
 
Summer listening really goofs the #s.

Z100 just 2 months ago had a 6.0 now a 5.5 yet their 4.77m cume is a yearly high.
 
Nash seems to be pretty popular from what I heard it's not going anywhere. I usually listen when I'm in the car. Nice variety for a change. Now which station is a candidate for Alternative?
 
Breaking that two share puts Nash into WYNY territory, at least in total audience. It's conceivable that they could eventually be as popular.
 
Talk about ratings here. I guess WNSH's "Nash" is going to do well in the 3.0 share, but I hope it will have more in the July ratings. I don't have much to say about CBS-FM, but it's doing very well, but not going anywhere. I remember last year when WCBS-FM did their 40th anniversary weekend playing the music that everyone used to love with the 50's and 60's music. But in the Hudson Valley, which is north of the city, WGNY's "Fox Oldies" in the latest Poughkeepsie ratings still never showed up. I recorded all day of "Fox Oldies" back on July 4th which was Independence Day where Van Ritshie, Bob O, Gene Slather and Joe Manglass are on that station, kinda reminds me of the WMCA "Good Guys" team from the 1960's. I just posted them all in chronological order in the Hudson Valley board. If you haven't listened to these, you should check out my post in the HV board.

These "Fox Oldies" airchecks and the music sounded a lot like the old CBS-FM since it hit the airwaves back on 7/7/72 right up until 6/3/05 when it flipped to "Jack". But now, CBS-FM is in its 41st year as a classic hits station playing the actual music, not the pre-1964 stuff that you hear on WGNY's "Fox Oldies", and yes, "Fox Oldies" does indeed play a better mix of pre-1964 and post-1964 music together, except a few album cuts that you don't hear on any of the AOR stations like WNEW-FM in the late 60's or early 70's. I've been said so many times before if you haven't listened to these airchecks from "Fox Oldies" a few weeks ago back on July 4th, go right ahead.
 
BLS Might go #1?

+0.3 every month this rate it will take 2 more months


Who'd a thunk it

More Important. What is CC's next move to counter that?

in a city with under a 20% black population apparently 2 urban AC's are not viable. This according to some on the black talk radio post.
Seems odd to me given how both WRKS and WBLS did prior to WRKS' demise.

That doesn't "Protect the Queen though" well it could move Z to the top. I still thinks CC's goal is to Keep Lite #1.
