I'll say it again.  If you're in the 'burbs but want to ID with the
big city you're next to, change the name of your company to that of the
big city you want to ID with.

example:  Elgin Broadcasting Company becomes simply "Chicago"...

therefore your ID could be:  WELG - Chicago - Elgin


(not that I'd want to do that...)
