Air America will owe me a beer. I am part of a Arbitron survey.
I got contacted by Arbitron survey company(www.Arbitron.com )to be part of a radio survey in Portland Oregon. I am one of one thousand households that will be part of this survey which starts on August 19th. They are going to send me a journal to keep track of when and what I listen to.

I had told them on the phone that I listen to http://www.super62.com/main.html (KPOJ) otherwise known as Air America Radio in the Portland Oregon metro area. I am excited and look forward to Air America kicking butt on the local hate radio jerks.

Woo-Hoo!! Go Air America!!

2. That's great but word of advice: don't tell anyone at
the station or, at least, keep it on the hush. A station can really get screwed (flagged in the ratings) if there's any evidence of tampering.

As you know, obviously, your one book can make a huge difference, though.

3. Uh -Oh!!
I just e-mailed KPOJ with the good news. I didn't say, Hey KPOJ give me some gas money if you want me to be nice on the ratings. I just told them that i was excited to be able to say my part about Air America.

4. That's awesome, LG!!!
Thanks for helping put AAR on the map!!! We have Air America Radio here in Portland, and I keep my radio FUSED to 620 a.m.

Someone told me that there is satellite (?) that can keep track of what radio frequencies people listen to. So I make sure to keep it always set on my favorite radio station.

My radio on the front porch is always on. I keep the volume down when i'm not there to listen but other than that it is always on, in case they can somehow tell. In my car I listen to nothing else except KPOJ and the occasional CD.

It's me who is taking these surveys. And if I were a Dentist I would be the 1 out of ten dentists who recommend that you don't chew gum.
