Oddly enough, it makes more sense than the rumours about it being WHOM.
Arrow 105.3 (WXBB) has its tower in Eliot, Maine...less than 20 miles
from WSTG's tower site.  However, 105.3 doesn't do crap to the south,
especially along the coast....while 102.1 covers the beaches.
If Fuller Jeffrey is doing what they have been doing with WOKQ and WPKQ,
then they will simulcast except for spot sets, during which each station
runs its own ads.
Of course, it is just another step toward the day when radio will be
like the Model "T"...available in any colour as long as it is black, to
paraphrase Henry Ford.
So much for original programming.
