 Worse, last year I was running a proof on WAAA 543 AM
 in New York City. ( obviously, names have been changed to
 protect the clueless )

 I clearly heard the ID "You're listening to 957 AM, WZZZ New York"

 I stopped the project, and called the entire crew back in.
 We got a SERIOUS problem with something !

 Nope. Programmed it that way to save money. It's simulcast
 in that day-part !

 But, what do I know ?
