Can we get this on to a mathematically sound basis please?Sorry - pet hate - but let's be accurate with numbers."Eleven times better" is the same as "Twelve times as good" - so why not use the "better" number?If you don't follow this - work out what "One time better" would be - it has to be "Twice as good" - and then follow the sequence.Use numbers wrongly and you mis-inform.

Subject: [cma-l] Is Radio 1 Eleven Times Better than Commercial Radio? – FM Spectrum Consumption in the UK
It’s a deliberately provocative title – “Is Radio 1 Eleven Times Better than Commercial Radio?”
That is to say, does it deserve to be able to use 11 times more FM
spectrum resource per listener than Commercial radio? We could equally
have asked:-“Is Radio Cymru fourteen hundred times better than Community radio?” or“Is BBC Radio 3 three times better than Classic FM?”These
questions stem from an analysis we have done of the way our FM radio
spectrum is consumed in the UK. All things being equal, then
approximately the same amount of this precious resource called
“spectrum” should be consumed for each listener. But as we will see,
things are far from equal.More here from Glyn Roylance:
