WJFF in Scranton

I have recently noticed that 105.7 WFTE has is now broadcasting WJFF from Jeffersonville NY. I was wondering if anyone knows when this occurred. I will admit that I have always liked WJFF and I am happy that I can easily get the signal here in the city.
 
I was up that way for a Sat-Sun a few weeks ago, Paul, July 11th and 12th.
I stayed at my kid sister's in Woodbourne, about 3/8" north of Monticello on the map.

One of the activities was a Sunday morning FM bandscan. Partially, I wanted to see how an actual tune of the Grundig S450 would compare with the Radio-Locator menu for the area. I had no PC with me up in Woodbourne. All those crib-notes were at home.

WJFF, of course, pinned the meters. In looking at the R-L map, they seem to cover every square foot of Sullivan County. When I got home, I was surprised to find that there are three FM stations licensed to Jeffersonville. They're a very small town, notable for something like consuming more beer per capita than anywhere else but Milwaukee :)

Aren't there any NPR stations in Scranton for you to enjoy? Why is WJFF's programming that compelling? Just curious.

On the reciprocal side of the DX side, I did hear WKRF -- WKRZ's 107.9 translator at the time, iIrc -- a few years back up in that same Woodbourne.
