I wonder if that deal will have a Vermont impact.  WCRB's product, "The 
Classical Station" is fed to Ken Squires' WCVT (101.7 Stowe) (improved 
coverage here in Addison County although a hair more juice would be 
better).  Same jocks, different voice tracks and for a network _very_ 
well executed and that's from a guy who lives for [a] good execution.

It's a decent product and good to have as a classical choice to VPR. 
File under: A rising tide lifts all boats.

VPR has classical product after Morning Edition and until Terry Gross at 
3 p.m  And, as our venerable Scott can best speak to, they are growing a 
"VPR Classical" network of stations.  Hmm.....One wonders when 
Chittenden/Addison Counties will be a part of the footprint?  ;-)

I am holding out against Sirius for as long as I possibly can, akin to 
John Cleese in a sinking boat as people flail & bail with coffee cups 
and he exclaims, with authority, "Nothing to see here, as you were, move 
along."
