KCUB (1290 AM, "The Source") is a commercial radio station located in Tucson, Arizona. KCUB airs a sports talk format. KCUB serves as the flagship station for University of Arizona Wildcats football and basketball games via IMG Sports. KCUB is the local affiliate of the NFL's Arizona Cardinals.[1] Its studios and transmitter are co-located on Oracle Road in Tucson, north of downtown.
The format includes programming from CBS Sports Radio, including host Jim Rome, as well as local hosts Kevin Woodman and Iron Mike Luke, and Dan Patrick's Fox Sports Radio program.
KCUB was founded in 1929 as KVOA - in 1953, believing that TV would replace radio, the owners kept their then-new KVOA-TV channel 4 and sold off the radio station.[2]
