I have heard regular folk in Cambridge complain they have trouble hearing
1060 clearly......they don't understand all that goes into it.

96.9 (shrug)  IMHO is boring...........and I've tried togive them a chance.

NOW   IS it possible that a mix of news-music-light talk banter that has
worked in other markets COULD work here? It worked for WHDH 25 years
ago.....why not again?

Seems to be worth a shot at least....
