Activator Points Change
activatorlogo23.jpg Beginning with the January 5, 2026 chart, Country Activator weights will be calculated using the adjusted AQH of the top five Country stations, rather than the top five Activator stations. The change will reduce the overall points base of the Activator chart and of individual songs, but will not affect chart positions or spins. The move brings Activator weights in line with weights for all other Country stations within Mediabase and as published in Country Aircheck.
