Which makes me wonder why Radio Disney keeps going.  What is its 
audience?

Except there have been some new stations taking over some of the old 
converted CBC stations.  For example, a new station doing beautiful 
music has taken over the old CBL transmitter, and it signal competes 
at night with WJIB.

Interestingly enough, it was because of CBL that I discovered WJIB.  
I had a button on my car radio set for 740 because I liked to listen 
to the CBC news at night.  As a result, I occasionally would check to 
see what was going on with WCAS and its later incarnations and 
eventually discovered Bob's WWEA and WJIB.  And it was while I was 
waiting to pick up my sister's kids at Hebrew School one Sunday that 
I discovered Let's Talk About Radio.
