While I know that it never works out that way when you have a monopoly, it is still interesting to note that the total SHARE of the three CHR stations, Bounce, Virgin and Hot, adds up more than #1 rated NOW. 11.6.
Come to think of it, Power 92 had numbers like that when it was all alone in Edmonton as the only CHR station.
Hard to remember that, less than 10 years ago, Edmonton had no CHR stations, from when Power 92 switched format until The Bounce first signed on.
CFCW sure is back in the saddle, up a full 1.1 SHARE since the last ratings, and 1.6 from the same time last year. It will be interesting to see how they do now that former K-97 PD Gruff Gushnowski has replaced Danny Hooper on the Morning Show with Sharon Mallon. Gruff really knows Radio and he was raised locally (Innisfree) as a Country Boy.
Given that CFCW and The Bear are tied for #8, that means that 3 of the Top 8 are AM stations! To AM naysayers, I quote Mark Twain: "The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated."
