ing listeners, 44 cc of all afternoon listeners, 42.7 c;c of all nightime listeners — with nine stations competing in the market! BMB shows 44^ of all radio listeners tuned to WTAR six to seven nights a week and 37^ in the daytime. No other station in the market can approach this kind of coverage. Despite the insistence of the ANA that TV has reduced the value of radio time, the advertisers in our market are so well satisfied with WTAR's past and present performance as a sales medium that we have difficulty finding time for them. If today's customer is worth as much to you, our advertisers, today hs he was in 1942, you are getting that customer's ear through WTAR at bargain rates — at little more than half what you paid for his attention in 1942! Every logical reason and cost factor indicates that WTAR should raise, not lower, its rates.
