L-A Radio: The More Things Change...

The more they remain the same.  

At least as far as KBIG My104.3 FM is concerned.  The iHeartMedia station remains in the #1 spot again this month (6+ AQH Total Week) in the May PPMs (April 23—May 20) released Monday by Nielsen.  In April, My104.3 FM tied for the top spot with clustermate KIIS 102.7 FM.  In May however, KBIG lost share 5.4—5.1 and ends up sharing the mountain top with CBS Radio’s Classic Hits KRTH 101.1 FM, which wobbled 5.2—5.1.

As for iHM’s Top40 KIIS-FM it was down 5.4—5.0 to end up in the #3 spot.  And the company’s Feel  Good AC KOST 103.5 FM ended up at the #4 spot, despite dropping 4.9—4.5.  

In April, there was a 3-way tie in the Number 5 spot…this month CBS Radio’s UrbanAC KTWV 94.7 FM The Wave is solo at #5, moving up 3.9—4.4.  

Last month’s other stations ranked #5...Bonneville’s Classic Rock KSWD 100.3 FM remained flat at 3.9, but fell to #6..and CBS’s Radio Variety Hits KCBS 93.1 FM slipped 3.9—3.6 to end in the #7 spot.


25-54:  KBIG…KIIS…KRTH…KOST tied KCBS-FM tied KSWD

18-34:  KIIS…KRRL…KAMP…KBIG tied KPWR

18-49:  KIIS…KBIG…KRTH tied KAMP…KRRL

Cume:    KBIG-FM 3,667,100…KIIS-FM 3,569,400…KOST-FM 3,478,700…KRTH-FM 3,120,900…KAMP-FM 2,716,000

Note: CBS Radio KTWV The Wave continues an recent upward climb, trending 3.5-3.9-4.4.  That 4.4 is up almost two shares from a year ago.  The station’s ratings ascension comes less than a year after it promoted assistant program director Ralph Stewart to program director.
