No. 1s: WGNA, WUSY, WFMS, WQIK, WXBQ, WIVK, KSSN, WAMX, WGH, KXKT, WQDR and WBBS A baker’s dozen of Country outlets lead this week’s batch of Fall 2006 Arbitrons with shares good enough to place them first, 12+ in their respective cities. Leading the way with a leap of almost four shares is WXBQ/Johnson City-Kingsport-Bristol, TN-VA. Among the stations that increased by one or more shares are WGNA/Albany, WWNQ/Columbia, SC, WYOK/Mobile and WBBS/Syracuse. Each week we’ll update Country radio ratings from around the USA in the Country Aircheck Music Edition. A “+” indicates a Classic Country outlet, a “^” designates Country stations in the same market owned by a single operator and an “*” indicates a tie.
