WUHN changed calls to WUPE about a week ago and picked up the oldies 
format that's been on WUPE-FM 95.9 Pittsfield and WMNB 100.1 North 
Adams. In another week or so, 95.9 will drop the oldies and begin 
simulcasting "Live 105" top-40 WBEC-FM (105.5 Pittsfield) - and sometime 
in May, the 105.5 license will move about 40 miles east to Easthampton, 
in the Springfield market, and become sports WVEI-FM, simulcasting WEEI 
850 Boston.

The WBEC-FM calls and top 40 format will stay on 95.9, which will 
presumably become "Live 95.9." I think 100.1 in North Adams will end up 
as WUPE-FM, simulcasting oldies with WUPE 1110.

Shameless plug: this has all been covered in (probably excessive) detail 
in my NorthEast Radio Watch column, fresh every Monday at www.fybush.com.

A quick way to see if I've covered something like this in the column is 
to go to the Google search box in the corner of your screen (you ARE 
using Firefox as your browser by now, right? There's very little excuse 
to still be using IE) or directly to Google and type:

wupe site:fybush.com

This will bring up anything on that particular site having to do with 
WUPE, and in this case brings up about a dozen articles that mention 
this particular swap of calls and formats.
