Dennis... number one, you're lucky to have a large enough radio market that
jazz is supported. Most public radio stations are classical, but we are 
fortunate enough to have both a jazz station and a *successful COMMERCIAL* 
classical station (that's almost unheard of). Anyhow, since
it's you posting this, I'll ignore the obnoxious comment about jazz :)

WTAM changed calls to reflect its change in programming direction to all-news.

Now, if the rumors are true about 'MMS going classic rock... I'm gonna 
start a campaign to buy it from Nationwide and *then* we can turn it into
sports talk :) (nothing wrong with classic rock... it's just that we already
have one classic rock station in Cleveland, and MMS has done nothing but
copy other stations' formats for the past two years.)
