NB> Which is, I believe, the set-up as stated above for North Country
 NB> Public Radio.  They cover all of the top part of New York State, along
 NB> with Vermont.  I think that that is what is being started here in
 NB> Rochester, to a lesser extent, with adding WJSU to the WXXI signal.
 NB> Locally it's a bit stranger, even... as WJSU sometimes is simulcasting
 NB> with WXXI-FM and sometimes with WXXI-AM.  The AM station has all the
 NB> newsfeeds (FM only takes the 3-5 minutes on the top of the hour, and
 NB> not every hour, either), and passes them to WJSU.  I think that that's
 NB> also what is happening with the newsfeeds to WRUR, that it actually
 NB> comes through WXXI-AM rather than being WRUR hooking up directly to
 NB> the same national feed.  Both WJSU and WRUR are FM stations, BTW.

NCPR might be like what we have here, where the state runs the system from one
location. WUNC, (Chapel Hill) has transmitters nearly all across the state,
and they have one main distribution point. in effect, it's one station, part
state funds, part donations. they do the same thing here with Public TV, it
covers the state , the ID list suggests that might be the case with you, too.
I don't know, one would have to see who owns what.
Down in our courser of the state Public radio is community owned,with national
feeds that we pay for., and some local programming, isn't it's ahrd to tell
anymore whats what.
