Are they? 2SM don’t partipcate in the ratings. You have no way of knowing. For all we know, 2GB’s listeners have gone elsewhere that isn’t 2SM, or have died. 
SEN tied at 14th - beaten by Sky Sports Radio, and several of the ABC stations. Who knew Sydneysiders don’t want to listen to Radio Sporting Boofhead*/Radio CTE? or thar you can’t copy the Melbourne SEN format into Sydney and expect it to work.
To be honest I’m surprised they rate that much - other than the older demographic who maybe only have access to old school radios who listens to music on AM in mono these days.
What’s interesting to note is that nearly 65% of Gold 101.7’s audience is aged 55 & over, whilst for Gold 104.3 in Melbourne, that is at 52%. Indeed, the only demo where Gold outrates Smooth in Sydney is at the 65+, whilst in Melbourne, Gold outrates Smooth in the 40-54 & 55-64 demos.
I really feel sorry for Kip,Robin and Corey .Their days on air are numbered after this survey result

“I can’t wait to add Fridays and of course thanks to my dear mate Kath who will still be all over the 702 schedule, as one of the hardest working broadcasters in the biz.”

When they rebranded to Gold, I thought they wanted to tagged the 25 to 54 demos 
They’ve been well and truly set up to fail, by the music shift to CHR on 97.3
Their audience can only be so loyal when they’re not getting the music they’re used to, or want.
This is the first time any station other than 2GB has topped consecutive surveys in Sydney since Nova in S2 and S3/2004.
Gold 101.7 is rating lower for under 55’s than 2Day. No wonder ARN are trying to shake up the station.
Not only that, but even 2GB has a higher under 55’s average audience than Gold 101.7.
Music is one thing. The show itself is quite jarring. Corey Oates was never a good fit. Should have just left Robin and Kip and the show would be fine.
Couldn’t have anything to do with the fact that 2UE is now networking with 4BH and magic 1278 and dropped announcers after 7pm.
How many decades will SCA be defending 2dayfm
How many decades will SCA be around in its current form? I’m guessing less than 1.
