At last, Canberra news-talk listeners will have a conservative alternative to the chronically Left ABC.
Typically, ABC666 (2CN) & RN (846, 2RN formerly 2CY) has approximately triple and double the audience of 2CC at 12%+ and 8%+ respectively. In other markets, RN rates 2%-3%. A typical ratings result for the Canberra market can be found at https://www.gfk.com/en-au/insights/report/radio-audience-measurement-survey-summary-reports/ .
Alan Jones will have an uphill battle to increase the market share of 2CC's audience. Otherwise it will be a first for a Sydney-based broadcaster, Fran Kelly beating the other Sydney-based broadcaster Alan Jones.

As at 17-12-2019, in the 0530 to 0900 timeslot, RN's ratings are 10.0 compared to 2CC's 5.5, source https://www.gfk.com/fileadmin/user_upload/dyna_content/AU/Documents/Share_Summary_Reports/Regional/2019/S3_2019/GfK_Summary_Report_Canberra_Survey_3_2019.pdf
In other capital cities, RN rates between 2% and 3%. Canberra's RN has consistently been very high rating.
