Boston Radio: New Sheriff In Town Country Is #1

Summer surprise in Boston as WKLB 102.5 FM makes a little history as the new #1.  For the first-time ever a country station tops Boston’s ratings as the Greater Media station moved 7.0 – 8.1 besting perennial winner Top 40 WXKS Kiss108 (107.9 FM).  The CCM+E station slipped to #2 moving 7.9 – 7.6.

CBS Radio Classic Rock WZLX 199.7 FM notched-up 6.7-6.8 to claim the #3 spot for the third straight book.  Cluster-mate Newser WBZ 1030 AM is in sole possession of the #4 spot 6.1-6.3.   Sports WBZ-F The Sports Hub 98.5 FM dropped 6.1 – 4.5  to #8. 

Looking at two recent format flips:

  • Greater Media’s rhythmic AC WBQT Hot 96.9, the former talk WTKK, goes 3.2-3.1. 
  • CBS Radio’s CHR Amp 103.3 FM, which replaced oldies on WODS, is flat 2.8-2.8.
Top Cumers: Kiss 108  1,554,400...Magic 1,277,400...Classic hits WROR 1,055,000.
