Thirty-two years after Doug Banks began broadcasting in Chicago, he\u2019s still riding high in the ratings.<\/p>\n

Nielsen Audio figures released Monday for the period from September 11 to October 8 again give Banks the top spot for his syndicated afternoon show on iHeartMedia urban adult-contemporary WVAZ FM 102.7. That\u2019s the same frequency where it all began for Banks in 1982 under the call letters WBMX.<\/p>\n

Leading afternoons among men between 25 and 54 is Terry Boers and Dan Bernstein of CBS Radio sports\/talk WSCR AM 670, while No. 1 among women 25-54 is Kevin \u201cKoz\u201d Koske on Hubbard Radio hot adult-contemporary WTMX FM 101.9.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a look at Chicago\u2019s top 10 afternoon shows as measured by Nielsen Audio among all listeners age 6 and older from 3 to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, followed by average share of audience (with previous month\u2019s share in parentheses).<\/p>\n
