Was Big City operating multiple transmitters and programming feeds? I
recall Big City on 101.3, until displaced by the licensed WJIB translator,
and another pirate on 105.3.

B87 had a pretty strong signal. I could pick it up as far south as the
Derby Street exit on Route 3, maybe even a bit beyond that.
