Arbitron, the company that measures radio listening in the United States, has consistently rated Z88.3, shown by our call letters as WPOZ-FM, as the most listened to radio station in the Orlando metro survey area and the audience just continues to grow!
The big story from the current November 2012 Report is that your Z88.3 has a Cume Rating of 24.3 in the metro. This means 24.3% of the population -not just radio listeners, are using Z88.3 on a weekly basis! That’s a “hair” less than one in four. In other words, if you walked up to four random people on the street, there is a good chance one uses the radio station. If you walked up to five random people, it almost guaranteed one or more would have listen to Z88.3 in the past week.
Just think about that for a moment…
Z88.3, a station that boldly proclaims Christ has this kind of impact and is the #1, most listened to radio station in Orlando Florida!

No other Christian station in the country has ever seen this kind of success.
As impressive as these ratings are, they are not our numbers. God does the calling, we just put out His Word for those who are seeking. We are faithfully using the radio ministry that God has given us and watching Him reap the overflow harvest. Our God is the One who has produced the fruit by drawing souls to Himself.
Thank you to all the individuals and families for making your Z88.3 Arbitron rated #1! To God alone be ALL the Glory – Great things He has done!

The Orlando Metro consists of Orange, Osceola and Seminole counties and therefore doesn’t reflect any listening to Z88.3 in the surrounding Central Florida counties in this particular report.
You will also see “WPOZ-FM HD2″ and “WPOZ-FM Stream” listed in the Orlando Metro Report. “WPOZ-FM HD2″ is HOT 95.9 our Christian Hip-Hop and R&B offering on HD radio and simulcasted on the Orlando 95.9 FM translator. The “WPOZ-FM Stream” is the Internet and Smartphone listening inside the three county metro that is separate from the FM and HD listening.
As of this moment, “WPOZ-FM HD-3″ which is 106.3 The ROCK our Christian rock and alternative offering on HD radio and simulcasted on the Orlando 106.3 FM translator, has not shown in the ratings, but we are hopeful for this coming year.
