>>Any guesses as to the fate of Howie's program on the affiliates if 
he moves over to WTKK?-WHYN, WVMT, etc. He has a pretty good 
following in Springfield.

Nearly all of his stations have local morning shows: WVMT (Charlie and Ernie), WCRN (Peter Blute),
WGAN in Portland, WXTK on the Cape (Ed Lambert), WNTK in the Lake Sunapee region of N.H.,
WHYN Holyoke, WVOM in Bangor, ME. It's up to them to decide whether they'd want to clear
Howie in the morning and move their morning host(s) to pm drive, or possibly pick up Howie
tape delayed at 3 or 4 pm--provided Greater Media decides to syndicate him.
WEGP in Presque Isle, ME still has Howie according to their site; they do syndie in
the morning and could clear him...

Again, it's up to these stations to decide whether they'd want to pick him up in am drive
and perhaps displace the morning show to afternoons, or do him tape delayed. WCRN could put
Blute in afternoons, for example, and pick up Howie live.
