I wonder if a format change could be in the works too. KBOI-FM?

The biggest surprise to me was the dropping of the Nash Icon branding from one of the stations. Could Cumulus be pulling support for Nash?

 

[Kent]

Cumulus dropped the Nash branding off of KQFC about a year ago. Cumulus has been dropping that branding ever since Mary Berner took over for the Dickeys. I don’t think it has added a single Nash station since she took over, though it may have converted a few Nashes to Nash Icon.

It appears that Cumulus is indeed trying to merge KQFC and KIZN. KQFC will be taking on a new format shortly, but it's unlikely to be KBOI-FM.
