B105 Nominated For Station of Year

WUBE-FM (105.1) staffers have an added incentive to watch the 43rd annual Academy of Country Music Awards May 18.

B105 has been nominated as a major market "radio station of the year" by the academy along with WXTU-FM, Philadelphia, Pa.; KYGO-FM, Denver; WQYK-FM, St. Petersburg, Fla.; WMIL-FM, Greenfield, Wisc. It's B105's first nomination from the Academy of Country Music.

Judging is based on the station's involvement in the community, its commitment to growing the country music format, and ratings and revenue success.

The winner will be announced -- but not presented -- during the live telecast on CBS May 18 (8-11 p.m., Channels 12, 7).
