There's no legal (FCC) limit.

At one time years ago, there was a 'voluntary' limit that most radio stations adhered to.

But since more commercial minutes means more revenue (income, profit), the voluntary

limit was doomed from the start.

The only realistic answer to the question now is: As many as they can sell and cram into

an hour of program without letting it become so obvious that they lose listeners.

How Many Minutes Of Ads Are There in An Hour On The radio?

It's never been legally limited by the FCC. For several years, there was a voluntary limit in the broadcast industry ... I think it was either 13 minutes or 18 minutes per hour, but it doesn't matter, because it's not followed any more. Nowadays, the answer is: As many as they can sell, and air without losing listeners. Remember, radio is a for-profit business. The owners of the station are the sellers, the commercial advertisers are the buyers, and your ears are the product that's bought and sold.
