What length PSA is most preferred by stations these days? 15, 20, 30 or 60? Also I would like the opinion of some of you regarding the "exact length" that PSAs should be. Back in the old days (when I was most active in radio) the 30s were :29:20, the 60s were 59:20 etc......and just how important is it these days for the total time to be "exact.?"
My feeling is that timing is not as critical for PSAs these days as it used to be. But please correct me if I'm wrong.

We mostly use 30's here and the length should be 29.9. We have a split system here for our spots so timing is critical. If I get something that's too long and I want it in the system I'll shorten it in CE2K. We don't use 15's or 20's and will occasionally need a 60 but not very often.
