WITS/Red Sox (was: And from Cape Cod.....)

[Sid Schweiger]

>>I seem to remember reading something about the station having 
contracted to carry Red Sox games, and part of the contract required 
them to have their studios in a location near Fenway Park, all at 
some expense, and then the Red Sox switched to another station.<<

There was another clause in the Red Sox contract with WITS, giving the station a clearly defined amount of time to improve their signal.  I believe this is when the transmitter site was moved from Quincy to its present location.  Problem is, it didn't improve the signal to the Sox management's satisfaction, so they moved to another station when the contract was up.
