Station Name New TSA ‘000’s Clan FM 290,561 Other Changes (including Documentation & Processing)
From January 2004, several changes were made to the recruitment questionnaire and listening diary.
A series of questions were added regarding DAB Digital Radio concerning "Awareness", "In-Home Ownership", "Recency of Purchase" & "Purchase Price".
In addition a question was added to the series of Mobile Phone questions regarding frequency of listening to the radio via a mobile.
Platform Editing for Digital Only services
As described in a previous bulletin, RAJAR wishes to ensure that digital radio listening claims are validated insofar as this is possible. The new and repositioned questions on platform access/ownership allow RAJAR for the first time to implement a validation service based on the current documentation since platform details are now probed by an interviewer. All claimed at-home digital listening is checked against ownership/access capabilities before being included in the results.15-24 Dual Placement adopted across the entire sample
In any household where a person aged 25 or over has been recruited, the interviewer is permitted to also recruit a 15-24 year old as an additional respondent, up to a maximum of 1 per assignment.
