Even more curious was the AM and talk battles down at the bottom. WJOX is the #1 talk station in the city beating ERC, YDE and API in that order.
But even at that, they were not the #1 AM station on the dial...WAGG took that spot with Gospel music even despite ENN still having decent ratings. Also note that WBPT 106.9 finished below WAGG as did WNCB. <P ID="signature">______________
