BRW: Celts to Entercom?

[Sid Schweiger]

>>But some time in the 1970s, the Sox =did= go from 850 (WHDH) to 1510
(WITS).<<

That move occurred with a condition:  That WITS was to move their
transmitter to a better site (they were still in Quincy at the time)
where they could cover all of the Boston metro.  They moved it, all
right, but the resulting coverage did not satisfy the Red Sox, and WITS
was not considered for renewal when their contract was up.
