Most marketeers have researched satutation schedules and they tend to
work.  Particularly on specific campaigns.

Now, Entercom has started a new "less is more" approach by limiting their
hourly spot load to 6 minutes and 2 minutes per break. Something our
stations did when we were NINE-FM. It increases the value of the spots by
getting rid of the marathon stop sets where most messages are lost in the
clutter.
