Shutdown of boston-radio-interest list

[011010001@interpring.com]

Well, some of us are still here.

Paradoxically, I have far less time than I used to for the mailing lists 
I'm on because I'm constantly attending to various radio stations I'm 
associated with: WUMB, WHRB, WZBC, my clients in Rhode Island and New 
Hampshire, and our stations in the Lebanon/Hanover/White River Junction 
market.

I've enjoyed being part of htis list and will miss it.

Thanks, and best wishes for 2024!
