Associated Press Awards

"Vermont's News and Sports Leader," WDEV AM/FM has served as the Green Mountain state's number-one source for news, sports, and talk since 1931. WDEV combines a 5,000-watt AM signal located in Waterbury, Vermont, with an FM signal originating from the top of Lincoln Peak at Vermont's world-famous Sugarbush Ski Area.

WDEV AM/FM serves as the flagship stations for the NCAA Division III National Champion Norwich University Hockey Network, as well as for broadcasts of American-Canadian Tour stock car racing throughout the summer. In addition, Radio Vermont Sports presents the state's largest and most comprehensive schedule of Vermont Boys' and Girls' High School Basketball, leading up to the state championship tournaments in March.

WDEV AM/FM's award-winning news coverage begins each morning with "Wake Up Vermont" with Michael and Michaels, and includes "The Mark Johnson Show," the "Dr. Dean Edell Program," and hour-long midday and evening newscasts featuring Vermont's most honored news team.

In a lighter vein, WDEV is also home of the world-reknowned Saturday morning music program, "Music To Go To The Dump By."
