So how would someone who is actually listening for the "legal ID" 
know which one is the real one?

Is there research that shows that mentioning the "little city" name 
at 10-minutes before the top of the hour - instead of at the top - is 
somehow disadvantageous?

Does the listening public really notice?  Do they care what's on at 
the top of the hour vs any other time?

Does anyone think that listeners react ---- "Ohmygawd Marge - they 
just said *little city* at the top of the hour... quick, turn the 
dial to some station with an image/sweeper/liner that says *big city* !!!"

Inquiring minds....
