Seems about right. I don't imagine your average radio station is generating a fortune.

  The margins vary wildly in radio. It's a sales driven business, once you meet core costs it's 85% gravy after that (the only things that scale with your sales are the music rights fees and commissions paid to sales persons). I've seen mom & pop stations that can't get by, and I've seen modest small market stations with 40% margins because they run a slim ship.
