What's on 94.9?

I've noticed recently something broadcasting on 94.9 in Eastern Montco. I use 94.9 for my iTrip, and when I unplug it, I've heard anything from the audio of Fox News, to automated classical to some random indie/singer songwriter stuff.

It's pretty strong in the Dresher/Oreland/North Hills area, and having it over such a decent span, I don't think it's someone else's iTrip or FM Transmitter for Satellite, or a retirement home pumping audio for the residents.

Anyone have any idea what it is?

You're about 12 miles from a 2-watt translator, which rebroadcasts a religious station (WBYO). That's the only legal thing around there on 94.9.

Yeah... but I don't think a religious station is airing Fox News ;)

I at first thought it may have just been a good pull of WRSD, but driving through their area a while back, I noticed their signal is VERY quiet, and whatever I'm getting on 94.9 is a pretty clear, loud signal. ::shrug::
