>>By way of clarification... WTOP was never owned by Chancellor or any of
its successors (including Clear Channel/iHeart).

Chase sold WTOP and WASH-FM to Evergreen in 1992, and Evergreen sold WTOP
to Bonneville in 1997. Evergreen was then acquired by Chancellor a year or
so later.<<

My mistake; I meant Evergreen rather than Chancellor.  (There have been so
many of these companies, I find it confusing.)  It was Evergreen, now
iHeart, that gutted WTOP and Bonneville that rebuilt it.  Hubbard has
continued what Bonneville began.
