Nielsen compiles and reports audience estimates for all radio stations in its surveyed markets, subject to its minimum reporting standards. The estimates for all reported stations are available only to Nielsen Radio Market Report subscribers.

Noncommercial radio stations that are authorized users through the Radio Research Consortium and that meet minimum reporting standards will be displayed in PPM markets. Noncommercial radio stations will not be displayed in Diary markets. Please contact the Radio Research Consortium at (301) 774-6686 or RRC@rrconline.org for information about authorized users.

The subscriber list is based on information available to and processed by Nielsen at the time of publication. A subscribing station may not appear if it recently changed its call letters or band, or if it was off the air during the recent reporting period.

In Continuous Diary Measurement markets, Topline Ratings displays estimates in each monthly report for all stations who subscribe to the June, September, December and March survey periods. For those who subscribe only to the June and December survey periods, Topline Ratings displays estimates for six monthly reports (June, July, August and December, January and February).
