Just lost my grandma, at age 96, may she rest in peace, so I'm kind 
of pre-occupied with that.  But as I understand it, WERS was indeed 
the first 10 watt educational FM to get on the air in Massachusetts, 
and maybe even the first in New England-- several others were 
licensed but didn't get on the air till later.  WERS did a dedication 
ceremony on 2 November 1949 and began regular broadcasts on 14 
November 1949.  WERS got a power boost and a dial position change in late 1950.
