New Classical Stations

[ai4i]

Are there any? That is, commercial stations that have switched their formats to classical within the last year or so in the United States?

XLNC - although, technically, it's in Mexico

Also, they are promoted as a not-for-profit (dot org) station with enhanced underwriting, as many NPR stations do. I do not know whether the first twenty FM channels (88-92MHz) are reserved for noncommercial stations in Mexico as they are in the US. I like the way all the "Excellency-1" announcements can be accessed in english y en español en la www.

We only have one classical station in the Chicago area, WFMT. It's tied in with WTTW our PBS station. We had another up until a year or two ago. I don't suppose there was enough call for it to have two. I miss it. It was actually the better of the two.

I began a thread for classical HD-2 stations, which I feel have much greatter potential than traditional main-channel analogue stations and am closing this thread now.

What? "Only administrators or moderators may perform this action"? Well, someone please do it, or everybody just go to my new thread and let this one die.
