Even with CRB you still can't hear the opera on Saturday afternoons.
The vulgarians have taken over.
The Met Opera you mean? I think that moved to one of the college stations years ago (WHRB/Harvard, I believe). While I'm not into classical or opera, I do remember Texaco running ads on TV about their sponsorship of the Met opera and
it showed a farmer out in the boonies tuning in to hear some
opera...(and I don't mean Grand Ole Opry!)
For those of us in Kansas City, we lost our FM classical station some years ago and it re-appeared in AM at the far right end of the dial. The alternative is to listen to the Kansas University FM station in Lawrence but that disposes us to the left's plaything NPR which I dispise with a purple passion. So, I carry numerous CDs in the car to invoke Brunhilda, Tosca, and Carmen when the lightning crackles on my AM dial. Pity me.

You have to listen to the Met on WHRB 95.3.

Even if their playlist is somewhat limited, it would be a shame to lose WCRB. I thought Charles River Broadcasting was held by some kind of trust that guaranteed a classicl format for another 80 years. Guess I need to go back and read the rest of the article.
