Fuel has been the lowest ranked station in the Calgary market throughout its first year of existence. For Spring 2007 the station had a mere 1.7% of listeners in the 12+ category, this rose to 1.9% of listeners for the same category in the Summer of 2007. For the Fall of 2007 Fuel's share of this demographic fell to 1.2%, with a slight rise to 1.4% for the winter 2008 ratings book.

Fuel's share of listeners in the 12+ category grew to 2.1% in the Spring 2008 radio rankings. This marked the first time Fuel was not Calgary's lowest ranked radio station thanks to the start of broadcasting of the new station 97-7 Calgary FM on March 6th, 2008.
