As I was driving home from Amherst last night I heard WDRC-FM in 
Hartford.  They no longer call themselves "Big D 103" (or was it "Big 
D 102"?), but they do say "Big D" now and then.  Mostly they're 'DRC-
FM."   They IDed as "WDRC-FM and WDRC-FM-HD1."  Why?

During the Saturday night request show, someone called in doing a 
really great "Gosh darn it" immitation of Sarah Palin and requested 
"North to Alaska," which they played "for Sarah."
