At one point being on 99.5 hurt WCRB (some listeners of whom already had
signal issues) because in the Mattapan-Dorchester area, a pirate called
Datz Hitz was running on 99.7. Listeners complained to the station,
according to a Globe article, and the station got the FCC to take action.
The pirate was also interfering with Logan aircraft radio.
