WFCC & WKPE finally being sold

[Doug Drown]

While we're on the subject of Nassau's new classical network: It'll be
interesting to hear what they come up with.  I was in Mass. for several days
last week and listened to WCRB during most of my driving time there.  The
format is decidedly "classical lite," as some on the Board have
indicated --- quite different from the WCRB I knew years ago.  That's not
the case with Nassau's Maine Classical Network.  It isn't that one hears,
for example, modern atonal music very often, but the stations do play a
large amount of comparatively little-known selections.  I wonder to what
extent that may change.
