The typeface and overall groovy design of this sticker, along with the brown backing, suggests that this is from the 1970s. Someone wrote the call letters on the back but to me it looks like "YBTM-FM." A KBTM currently exists but it's an AM station in Arkansas. WBTM is a station at 1330 AM in Virginia. Not much to Google on here. Any ideas?UPDATE: It is indeed KBTM - Jonesboro, Arkansas circa 1979-1982. Thanks for your help everybody! I'm pretty stoopid.

Could KBTM have been the call letters for both the AM and FM stations in Arkansas? They were in the same building, it's not unheard of for that to happen.
According to the REC Network site KIYS 101.9 in Jonesboro,AR was KBTM from 1979 to 1982. I think we have a hit.

That's it! Thanks guys. More mystery stickers coming soon.
Cross-referencing my "Across the Dial '78" book, it was KBTM (Top-40) also in 1978.
KBTM-FM
