The Radio Primer is a collection of notes that we’ve accrued over the past few years from various trades and other sources. We have found them to be extremely helpful when preparing to meet with both agencies and advertisers. Updated frequently, any new material will be at the beginning of each chapter.

 If you come across other compelling information that you believe should be included, please forward to Bob McCurdy.
