Yes, officially, -AM is not part of AM calls. So the ID should be WEEI
Boston, WVEI Worcester, WEEI-FM, Westerly-Providence, WVEI-FM
Easthamption-Springfield, and WVEI-FM-HD1 Easthamption.

Maybe the listeners who have gotten used to WEEI's 15-minute-long stop
sets have become inured to long breaks in the program content, so they
may be able to endure what sounds like an interminable ID (like the
ones you hear on strings of religious translators).

Also, until WVEI-FM starts transmitting HD2 and/or HD3 streams, they
could probably dispense with the 1 ;>)
