ESPN-Boston problems?

If Sporting News Radio shuts down, it will cause problems for JJ Jeffrey's 
Sports Jab Stations (95.5/1440/990) in Southern Maine.

ESPN is already on another station in the market.  Fox Sports Radio is on 
WZAN on the weekends.  My guess is that they would switch stations to get 
weekday clearance in Portland, but that would not happen overnight.
