  Would Entercom also buy the other Phoenix owned radio stations: the 92.1's 
in Peterborough NH & Sanford that simulcast WFNX and 1220 in Sanford which I 
believe is ESPN radio 24/7. If Enterccom buys the FM's and simulcasts WEEI 
or Mike: the Peterborough 92.1 would give them coverage in Nashua, North 
Central MA (Townsend/Fitchburg/Leominster/Gardner) and out towards Keene. 
Until Costa Communications signed on the translator for WNNW Lawrence, 
Peterborough put a decent signal into Lowell, now the co-channel signals 
battle it out. I'm not familiar with how much coverage the 92.1 in Sanford 
gets, I'll guess it covers Rochester & Dover OK, maybe not as well in 
Portsmouth.
