[IRCA] KOPT-1600 goes public

[Scott Fybush <scott@xxxxxxxxxx>]

According to my 100000watts.com change report tonight, KOPT 1600 in 
Eugene has flipped from progressive talk to public radio, with Oregon 
Public Broadcasting buying the station from Churchill.

This extends OPB's reach to the south - it's currently heard in 
Portland, Corvallis (KOAC 550) and most of eastern Oregon, but public 
radio in southwestern Oregon comes from Eugene's KLCC 89.7 and KWAX 
91.1, and from the Jefferson Public Radio chain based in Medford that 
includes KRVM 1280 in Eugene...which means Eugene will now be the only 
city (that I know of, anyway) with two public radio stations on the AM dial!
