WBCN to sports at 98.5; WBMX to 104.1

[Dan.Strassberg]

Why shouldn't 105.9 be commercial classical? In Chicago ,WFMT, a 
commercial classical station, is owned by a non-commercial FM 
(actually, a non-commercial FM and TV, I think). As a commercial 
classical station, WFMT apparently brings un more revenue for the 
noncommercial station or stations that own it than would a 
noncommercial classical FM. Also, is 105.9 licensed to New York City 
or to someplace else, like maybe Newark? Is it on ESB or Conde Nast or 
someplace else?
