Chicago Radio: MeTV FM Continues Steady Performance

The folks at Envision Networks are eagerly point out that MeTV FM, 87.7 FM in Chicago, continues its upward climb, hitting a 2.9 Share in Persons 6+, its highest share to date, beating both classic hits heritage stations WLS and WJMK.

The station also delivered a weekly TSL of 3:00 and an AQH of 20,000 (Persons 6+). Ratings data is from the recently completed June 2017 Nielsen PPM survey period.

MeTV FM began broadcasting as WRME in February 2015 on 87.7 FM, a part of the dial not accessible on all radios in Chicago, the nation’s third-largest media market. And yet, listeners found it and loved it. Within a year, 87.7 was competitive with Chicago’s heritage stations. Its market share has continued to grow. MeTV FM is now tied for #12 in Persons 6+ in the Chicago market.

MeTV FM was created as a musical companion to America’s #1 all classic television network, MeTV. Both the television and radio formats present timeless and memorable entertainment that resonates with a broad audience. MeTV FM is known for its deep, eclectic playlist that mixes a variety of genres. It is curated for long listening enjoyment and features music from an active library of more than 3,000 songs across four decades of great music.

In May 2017, MeTV FM announced that it would partner with Envision Networks® to syndicate the format to markets across America.
