1430 and 107.9 were simulcast in 1979, 80. Then sometime in late '80 or
early '81, adult standards came to 1430. Out went all the Sunday ethnic
programs on 1430. - The COL-change from Medford to Everett didn't happen til
March 1985, and that was so nighttime service could happen. With a huge
null to the west-southwest, most of Medford would not have been covered
signal-wise, in fact so much so that the night signal did not make the
requirements of covering the COL (Medford). So, to make a station cover its COL at
night.... change the COL. After nighttime service began, the station ID I
came up with, to soften the blow to Medford, was: "1430
WXKS-Everett-Boston, with studios in Medord". That was used for at least 6 months after
March 1985.
