Jazz in Boston/Massachusetts?

... this is actually a specific question since I'm only a very casual jazz fan but a friend of mine is looking for local outlets to send some jazz stuff for airplay. I see that WERS and WMBR do have jazz programming. Could anyone suggest other non-commercial outlets in the area who have jazz programming?

thanks
 
WHRB (they're technically commercial, but program like a non-commercial), and also Eric Jackson's show on WGBH weekday evenings. Also, if he's interested in central MA, WICN in Worcester has a lot of jazz programming.
 
If you are a night owl, check out ' Round Midnight on 95.9 fm WATD from 12 to 6 am. Sharri Smith and Bob Fornier take alternating shifts and it really makes the line up interesting...Some stuff I haven't heard in years, and very knowledgable hosts......on line at www.959watd.com
 
Eric Jackson WGBH 89.7 Mon-Thurs. 8:00pm-Midnight.
Bob Parlocha Midnight-5:00am also on WGBH 89.7
WHRB 95.3 5:00am-1:00 pm.
WMWM 91.7 6:00-9:00 Sunday night.

740 AM originates in toronto but putting high fidelity jazz into boston nighttime

Can't be listened to in Boston proper due to WJIB 740 AM in Cambridge, but Toronto dominates at night outside of Route 128.
