[QUOTE="El Morado Diablo, post: 1848363, member: 40760"] The problem with market levels is they don't work as well as we think they should. Multiple market levels should allow stations to move up when the cost of living warrants it. For instance, our station has the highest cost of living in our market. It's 10%-21% higher (avg 16%) than all the other stations. At least 3 of the other stations have higher market levels than our station. We've had a turnover problem for years and we can't get anyone to transfer here since most people would have to take a pay cut to live somewhere with a higher cost of living. It would be hard for us to believe that shrinking the number of market levels would be a positive thing unless they raised the floor for the lowest market level by a significant margin or did a realistic evaluation of the cost of living for each station.
