I have...sort of.  Somewhere in one of these boxes behind me is
an aircheck of WCAT-FM circa 1995, in which they say (very VERY
quickly) "WCAT Athol Gardner."  The first seven or eight times I
listened to the tape, I thought they were saying "WCAT-FM Gardner."
Either way it's not quite legal, of course.  I taped 'em again this
past weekend (you can just barely pick them up at the westbound
Pike rest stop between Westfield and Lee), but heard no legal.  As
for AM 700, well, all I've ever heard there is the Talk America
mega-legal that never seems to include WCAT.  Maybe weekdays are
different?  (And with CHSJ moving to FM, I wonder if WCAT can improve
its signal any...Dan Strassberg, enlighten us!)

in town (a full class B FM!) is all satellite outside of AM drive...
