Now that we have Portable People Meter (PPM) technology, we have a better grasp of true Toronto radio ratings. Mondoville just tipped me off that David Bray has published the latest Toronto PPM figures for September 2009.

Here are a few of my thoughts as I take in the numbers. David Bray has a nice September vs. October chart, btw.
- 102.1 The Edge is down a full point since September, from 6.3 to 5.3
- Chicks love 104.5 CHUM-FM
- The 0.1 score amongst women for CP24 Radio 1050 suggests they are in fact being measured
- The FAN 590 beats both AM 640 Toronto and News Talk 1010 CFRB
- KISS 92.5 is off to a rough start
What do you guys think?
