Station Avails Entry

Use the Station Avails Entry option to enter specific time periods and programming as they are sold by individual stations. These avails may be retrieved into a worksheet using the Avails Tab in the Buy Module. Avails are also combined with ratings to produce the data on the Station Research Report. You may update station avails at any time and may print a list of avails using Station Avails List.
