Actually, the station is still WDGY (only from Hudson, WI, now)

Yes, it's WMIN....The discussion of how the new 630 is a 'pale shadow' 
of the old 630 from St. Paul is long and winding, including people from 
some camps who feel that the station was better off the air permanently, 
than to have come back from Hudson, WI, at much less power.  I for one 
feel that the station is better off on the air at a fragment of its old 
power, than in the 'has been' file of the FCC..
