 PROFILE
Big City Radio isn't really that big. The company buys small radio stations in major markets and simulcasts their signals to mimic the feel and reach of big-city radio stations. Four New York stations broadcast country music under the Y-107 NY label. Its three Los Angeles stations (Viva 107.1) and two Phoenix stations (Que Buena, 105.3 FM) broadcast a contemporary Hispanic format, and three more Phoenix stations (The Edge) play modern rock. Big City also has two Chicago station groups: Hispanic top hits (103.1 FM) and Energy92 (dance hits). It also operates two Hispanic Web sites and publishes Spanish-language "Disco." Co-founder and chairman Stuart Subotnick owns 57% of the company and controls 93% of the voting power.
