                                                     I read that in the
Boston Herald one day last week,a brief 3 or 4 sentence blurb on the
tv/radio page mentioning their switch to business news(which took place
months ago quietly) as well as the new calls,and the fact that they did
some "antenna work"so that they can be heard in more of the Greater Boston
area.How can they do that without causing problems to 3 adjacent WNFT on
1150?They made no mention of the WBNW calls being used on 590 a few years
back.Also on the same day in the Sports section of the Herald,tv/radio
sports listings,they had a U Mass basketball game listed as being carried
on WCAP(980) and WATD(1120).I forgot to post that when I saw it last
week,but since it was not a big deal outside of E.Acton (or maybe S.Maynard
also) I guess I shouldn't feel bad.<g>
