No.  JJ Jeffrey's Atlantic Broadcasting owns 95.5 WRED Saco as well as 96.3
WLOB-FM Rumford and 1310 WLOB (AM) Portland.  The company also owns 95.5
Topsham, 1440 WJAE Westbrook and 900 WJJB Brunswick, which simulcast
Sporting News radio as "The Big Jab."  They are all run out of WLOB's
long-time location on Warren Avenue in Portland.
