WCAS was great! Sigh...
One neat station is WADN Concord, 1120 *AM*. This is Dick Pleasant's
station (of WGBH fame) and plays a WIDE variety of music under the
name "folk." I love WUMB dearly but they take a rather narrow
definition of "acoustic" music. 
  WADN also carries BBC and used to carry Monitor radio.  They even 
carry an hour or so of CPC (sic?) the Canadian Public Radio.
Disclaimer: where I now work I can't get AM so things may have
changed.
