In a letter to Arbitron GM Pierre Bouvard outlining his "strong
opposition" to Arbitron's plans to add a split portion of Hillsborough,
NH to the Boston metro, WFEA-AM, WQLL-FM& WZID-FM/Manchester, NH VP/GM
Raymond Garon contends that if his market ever wants to expand, it won't
be able to consider the Hillsborough remainder. Garon also says rules
governing the combination of metros, in which 75% of subscribers in the
smaller metro must support it, it should be applied to TSA
reapportionment.  If that were the case, Manchester's two subscribers
would have unanimously opposed the plan, based on actual listening and
commuting patters.  "Only and extreme south portion of the remainder
meets Arbitron's 55/15 rule," Garon Claims.  He also states "the only
meaningful shares of radio listening in the remainder are held by New
Hampshire radio stations."  Arbitron officials were unavailable for
comment.
