David:

I haven't heard anything on 1510... all I've got at home is a cloock radio
and I only sit in the car for a few minutes right before/after Sunset on
Friday.

I haven't heard back form my buddy at WLRB, but I will check again thgis
week.
I am betting it probably *IS* WLRB, but don't want to confirm or accuse
anything or anyone til lwe know for sure.
