IMHO, WXKS AM could do something most stations are moving away 
from...local radio.  While they are (technically) a Metro Boston station, 
their primary listening area is the Mystic Valley.  Even if they did a 
local morning and afternoon drive show, they could fill a niche by doing 
something most of us either grew up listening to or worked in: local 
radio.  

Yea yea, I know, profit margin stinks in local radio.  But, think of the 
listener base if a station offered local lunch menus, high school 
basketball, etc.

OK, so maybe its more of a dream then potential reality.  It could happen.
