New Sox Spanish flagship in...Haverhill? (1490)

[raccoonradio]

We were wondering why yesterday's opening day game in Balt. wasn't on 1510. @bostonradio did some checking around and found the new Red Sox _spanish beisbol_ network flagship is WCEC 1490 Haverhill (with some games on WCCM 1110
Salem NH).
Haverhill is a lot closer to NH than to Fenway. I was just on Rt 114 in Peabody and it was coming in, faintly.
In Peabody, not Boston...in daytime! No word of a Boston affil yet. (WESX 1230 Nahant or WLYN 1360 Lynn or other
stations would be nice)

WLYN ha ha ha ha ha

at 76 watts night power they BARELY cover their city of license, during the day they have a full schedule of high paying clients

WAZN would be equally as preposterous, even though they have a better signal, I don't think the current clients are going to willingly give up their paid slots for baseball games.

Wasn't Salem carrying them before? On WROL ( again signal hampered at night) or 1150?

True re WLYN but heck a lot closer than Haverhill. And of course ESX might do OK because they changed the COL to that Hispanic-speaking mecca of Nahant (kidding; I come from Nahant and can tell you it isn't so) so they could put their stick closer to Boston. 950 (may have had them before) or 1150 could make sense... they may have even had some games in Spanish on 590 (by day) before.
