106.7 (WJFK - Manassas, VA) serves the DC area with a mono signal
(though they also operate a HD-Radio quad-cast (WJFK on HD1, WJZ on
HD2, and WFAN on HD3). They used to have WIP on HD4, but that is not
present today. They are a CBS Radio-owned station that has been
already running sports-talk - and will be making the change to the CBS
Sports Radio Network format.

I don't know if their HD-Radio streams are processed in stereo or not.
Given the number of streams they're offering with the limited digital
bandwidth, it would seem prudent to stick with mono there too.
