I think they may have fired up a new transmitter on 549... I've heard 
them before, but never this strong, and their audio is now much more 
punchy.  Also, I measured their carrier frequency tonight to be 
548.9997, and they used to be at 548.9974, according to the mwoffsets 
list.  Speaking of parallels, try 531 - I'm hearing the same program 
there, though much weaker.
