Maybe, but it seems like with WBOQ 104.9 going oldies recently, and of
course WODS coming in as if next door, that the North Shore is getting
saturated with oldies on (better sounding) FM.

The satellite service on WESX is now more like "soft oldies" of the
60's and 70's than the Adult Standards that it used to be as well.
