2GB and 3AW have retained their top spots across Sydney and Melbourne, respectively, in the seventh radio ratings.
The Macquarie Media stations, now under the Nine umbrella following its takeover of the radio network, kept their lead across the overall, breakfast and drive time slots.
The seventh radio ratings results, covering the August 18 to September 21 and September 29 to November 2 period, also show that 2Day FM’s breakfast show kept a steady share of the audience, at 2.6 compared to its last results of 2.5.
