WBUR has a long-standing CP to increase power and change directional
pattern somewhat.  I believe this is predicated on a move of 
WSMU from 91.1 to 89.3.  Last summer (remember summer?)
during a WBUR open house, I had a conversation with the WBUR
CE, a tall gentleman with a Marine-style buzz-cut, and he
said WBUR and WSMU were working together on the facility 
changes for each.
