WLTL is the station at Lyons Township High School that won the award for Best Station in the Nation. This is the fourth time they won (also winning in 2002, 2004, and 2008).
You can find a full list of winners at
WONC's website (http://www.wonc.org/) - WONC being the station at North Central College where they handed out the awards. It is a pretty cool event as stations from not only our area, but also Iowa, Washington State, Connecticut and New York were also in the running for awards (the winners list isn't up yet but the nominees are there...I am sure the winners will be posted shortly).
I included the link to WLTL's website below if you want more info about the champs (and a station that has produced alumni like Dave Juday at ESPN 1000; Phil LeBeau on CNBC; Kraig Kann at the Golf Channel; and Mike Murphy formally of 670 The Score to name a few).
