It was. But in order to keep its unique format alive,  the owner of the
92.7 license essentially split in in two: the license was sold to BU, which
now operates it noncommercially. The intellectual property and studio was
sold to a new nonprofit,  Friends of MVY Radio, which raised a lot of money
to buy the intellectual property and run the webstream, and then raised
more money to buy the 88.7 license from Dennis.

I think,  but do not recall for certain,  that the nonprofit Friends group
may have been operating 92.7 under an LMA from the licensee in its last
months.
