Incidentally, I've found a couple of alternatives to WCRB, at least when I'm near a computer:  
One is Bayern 4 Klassik, an FM station in Bavaria.  The announcements are in German, but 
the music is the same.  The other is BBC Radio 3.  Both are online. 

Right now, though, I'm listening to WCRB on the AM-FM tube set that I was asking how to 
fix about a month ago.  I finally got it working tonight, after I got a replacement for a resistor 
that was bad.
