Adelaide radio ratings: Mix 102.3 holds top spot overall as Jodie Oddy departs

Australian Radio Network’s Mix 102.3 managed to hold a slim lead at the top of the Adelaide radio ratings, with GfK survey eight leaving the station as #1 overall despite falling 1.7 percentage points to an 11.7% share.

The station, which is losing breakfast co-host Jodie Oddy after 13 years, also lost share in that slot, but remains the #1 FM breakfast show in a two-way tie with Triple M Adelaide on 10.6%.

Jodie and Soda fell -1.9 points in a disappointing final book, with Triple M’s Roo and Dits gaining 1.1 points to meet them. ARN is yet to announce a replacement breakfast show for Mix 102.3 next year.

FIVEaa’s David and Will sit in second overall with 12.2%, despite losing 1.6 points. Nova’s Ben and Liam, who topped the FM stakes earlier this year, end the year in fifth overall with a respectable 9.7%.
