Music Format Survey

WQED-FM 89.3 Pittsburgh / WQEJ-FM 89.7 Johnstown Music Format Survey

A large percentage of Classical WQED-FM 89.3 / WQEJ-FM 89.7 listeners tune between WQED and local Classic Rock and Oldies stations. Many also watch programs on WQED-TV13 featuring the Moody Blues, The Guess Who and Doo-Wop artists, and make pledges in support of those programs.

The purpose of this survey is to gauge listener interest in a format blending: Classical Music with Classic Rock.

Your feedback will help WQED evaluate the viability of this new format. Please take a moment to answer a few questions so that we may better measure this interest.
