There are no other stations still broadcasting in analog
AM stereo in the area besides WJIB.

The last time I was out in Worcester with an AM stereo
well over a year ago, WVEI 1440 in Worcester still had
their AM stereo carrier and pilot on, though a straight
rebroadcast of a mono parent station (WEEI). I haven't
had a chance to check more recently if that's still the
case out there.

WILD is still on the air right now, but they shut off their
IBOC a couple of months ago. AM HD in this area is now just
WBZ, WMKI, and WXKS-AM.

WBZ and WXKS-AM are in stereo on HD. I'm not sure, but I
think WMKI may be running a mono feed on their HD. I'll
have to listen more closely to check on that.
