Yes, congratulations again to WVAQ, a station that'll blow the minds of those who "don't know."
But I also want to recognize KSTP-FM, winner of the "large market station of the year" award. "KS95" is just an absolute pleasure to listen to, perfectly balancing real, live, interactive, personality-driven shows (around the clock) with plenty of music, local information and content, physical presence throughout the Twin Cities featuring the actual people you hear on the air (even the morning guy does sticker stops...lots of them!), and good, old-fashioned entertainment not heard all that often anymore.
They're never in a hurry, but they're never wasting time, either. Despite having plenty of forward momentum, the feeling of the station is very casual. It is very easy to listen to KS95 for hours...if you're in or near the target in any way, they're just almost never going to give you reason to turn them off.
Like I said, an absolute pleasure......

Hubbard is family-owned.
By the Hubbard family, I'm pretty sure.
