In fact, in Houston, the #1 and the #15 station are only 0.2 ratings points apart. If you look at the Arbitron numbers, which are the useless 12+ figures, you will see that in nearly every market there is only one AM in the top 10, save those markets with multiple full coverage 50 kw stations.... like Chicago. Bit if you go to 18-54, the sales demo range, only one AM is in the top 15, WBBM, and it is 10th. The Arbitron lists cut off at a particular point. I show 39 stations with some listening in Chicago, while the Arbitron page shows less... but not one is licensed outside the metro.
