> INMHO the very fact that WBPS is a leased-access station 
makes it worth a lot of money. Think of all the cash that station
was raking in - no airstaff to hire, probably contract engineers,
a couple of sales people and a GM. -- much less than a "personality"
station like WILD or WEEI, where they have to employ announcers,
board operators and producers, production staff, salesmen, engineers, 
traffic people, newsmen, etc etc. Combined with the fact that WPS
is in a major city, and you got yourself a high-priced piece 
of real estate
