Yes.  They might have had to find a different Maine or New Hampshire
town to license it to, but 95.3A York Center was allocated at
*exactly* the minimum distance from 95.3A Cambridge's reference
coordinates.  If WHRB had been in Medford, a few miles north of its
current location, then the Maine allocation would have had to be a few
miles farther north than it is.
