Through the early and mid 60s, WBZ-FM ran classical music, with no liners 
or anything except an occasional legal ID, from noon to midnight.  No 
newscasts or anything else.  From 6 AM to noon, it was a full simulcast.  
Later, they had some canned classical music programming from some 
syndication service, but I don't think they usually put the AM news on FM 
during that period.
