The format is supposed to be changing shortly. The current one I cobbled 
together on a Sunday afternoon as a temporary stopgap several years ago 
for WZBR 1410. I'm surprised how many times it's come back from the dead, 
and particularly that it's been on 650 for more than a year now.

Interesting. My radio doesn't do that, but I have a Boston Acoustics 
Recepter HD, a very old model.
