720 AM broadcaster in Creole

[Jeff Lehmann]

I don't think that station in Lynn has been on the air in many years. That website has been around for a long time, and old entries are never deleted.

Most of the pirates on AM have since moved to FM. There may be one left on AM in Brockton, but it's not 1640.

...AM stereo?

It's astonishing that a pirate would have the technical savvy to get C-QUAM up and running. I wonder what he's using for an antenna.
