Foxy 107.1 was the most listened to radio station in the Triangle in October, according to Nielsen's radio ratings for the market.

By the numbers: The urban adult contemporary music station has held a No. 1 rating since September, when it passed WUNC Public Radio.

Yes, but: Triangle radio listeners still love to tune into talk radio.

  • WUNC, the Triangle's NPR station, was the No. 2 rated radio station last month.
  • And WTKK — which is known as 106.1 FM Talk and carries shows from conservative commentators like Glenn Beck — ranked third.

Of note: These ratings don't break down precisely when people are tuning in, nor specific listener demographics.
