Radio Planner Programming & Sponsorship Data

Programming & sponsorship data for all radio stations is now available as part of the Radio Planner Premium Service (Option 8 from the Radio Planner Index). Stations can be selected by ITV region and a report then chosen from the list of specialist programme categories below;

The report will show whether or not each station carries the chosen programming. If the programming is sponsored the name of the sponsor will appear and where possible the expiry date of the current contract.
Below is an example report from the programming & sponsorship search option on the Radio Planner. FM stations in the Meridian TV region were selected and a report showing Weather programming chosen;

The programming and sponsorship information also appears as a report in the individual station data section. This report will show the format of the station, for example chart music, and any network packages the station may be part of, for example the NNR frequency package. A list of all the station’s specialist programming and existing sponsors is also included in this report.
