Yes, they are on the air.  I heard their ID before the hour this 
morning even though my reception was not good at the time.

Driving home on Route 2 heading west tonight, I picked up pieces of the 
station around Fitchburg.  It did not become listenable until Gardner 
and did not become clear until Templeton.  From there I headed south 
towards Barre and the station was totally gone by the time I left 
Templeton into Hubbardston.

I wonder why Winchendon, a town of less than 5,000 people, has two 
radio stations:  WKMY and WOQL (97.7 FM).  WKMY can probably reach 
Athol and maybe Orange, and the outskirts of Gardner, but I can't 
imagine they can be heard in Fitchburg or Keene.  They certainly have a 
small potential audience.
