In the end, they brought the proceedings at 96.3 to an end in a dignified, classy and humorous manner. Their choice of "Mambo" from West Side Story as the final piece of music made me smile.
I stayed to hear the switch to WCAA and then promptly dialed my clock radio to 105.9 and was gratified to find that it came in quite clearly. I will wake up tomorrow to classical music the way I've always done and will hear the call letters, WQXR. Home is not an address but where the heart is.
I *will* miss the commercial for Legal Seafoods but will always have the memory of, "If it isn't fresh, it isn't Legal Seafoods".
