The ratings information at old-time.com gives every indication of having been�taken from the Summers book I mentioned earlier. That people draw�upon earlier sources of information doesn't bother�me, but that people do so without�attribution to�those sources�is one of my pet peeves.

There's a book titled "A Thirty-Year History of Programs Carried on National Radio Networks in the United States, 1926-1956," by
Harrison B. Summers that your friend might find useful. Its season-by-season listings include ratings for most programs.

A researcher friend asked me to inquire if anyone has recommendations about
where to find Hooper
 ratings for radio programs in the 30s & 40s?

I've checked the magazines of the time, but either there are only
occasional listings, or I'm not using the right search terms.

Thanks for any suggestions.
