US THE Dubbo radio market’s first survey in more than two years has named Hit93.5 as the “Station Listened to Most”, although it lost some ground to its commercial rivals 2DU and ZOO-FM.
The Xtra Insights Survey gave Hit 23.9 per cent of the total audience aged 10+ across the full week, Monday to Sunday. That was down a percentage point from 24.9 per cent in the 2017 survey.
2DU gained ground and ranked second at 22.2, up 1.6, while its sister station ZOO-FM also gained a little ground rising 0.2 to 17.3 per cent.
They were followed by ABC stations ABC Western Plains on 9.9 per cent and Radio National on 1.5. The biggest loser was ABC’S Triple-j which more than halved its audience from 6.1 to 2.6.
2DU’S strongest session was Mornings with veteran broadcaster John Laws which clinched the No.1 spot for that timeslot.
