Bring Back "Heritahe" Calls

["Laurence Glavin" <lglavin@lycos.com>]

On today's (06/01) LTAR, featuring Donna Halper, who has not become
too big to consort with the "little people" after all,
a few minutes were given to "heritage calls" and how they've
disappeared as stations have been bought and sold, and formats flipped.
One of the big offenders has been AM 1150 in Boston.
It's been sold again, this time to Salem Communications,
an outfit that has either held on to meritage calls (WMCA, NY) or restored them.  It seems to me it might be
a good idea to bring the call letters WCOP to 1150.  They're
currently in use by a college FM in Joe-jah.  Maybe for
a small stipend they could pull a Turner Broadcasting and acquire
the calls for AM 1150 here...or under the crazy-quilt call-letter
regulations these days, make WCOP the calls for an AM station in Boston,
while they remain on an FM in snake-handling, moonshine
making, inbreeding country.

as Newton, Mass. but better than Orange, Mass.
