As you may recall, 56 diary markets were discontinued by Numeris leaving us with our current 22, reporting central area only. Rawlco had reportedly withdrawn from Numeris, but their stations continued to be included once again in this release. radioCount, using a different methodology has recently released their Spring book surveying just five markets which utilize continuous measurement. Numeris has transitioned to the exclusive use of online diaries. radioCount uses individual recruitment, while Numeris uses household recruitment. All that being said, let’s take a look at five sample markets from the latest Numeris release. This covers the period of May 3, 2021 to May 1, 2022.
