He said, “Each year, I continue to be impressed by the caliber of our inductees, who deserve recognition for the high-quality radio they bring to listeners,” he said.

Three inductees were determined by a vote from a panel of 600 industry professionals; four were voted on by the Nominating Committee. Two were a result of a public vote from the listening public. The votes were monitored by certified public accounting firm Miller Kaplan Arase, LLP.

Additional details are forthcoming.
