A lot of good that does anyone living more than about 15 miles or so
from Boston.  Although owned by the richest University in America, WHRB
has an absolutely pitiful signal...it operates at only 1,700 watts with
a DIRECTIONAL antenna that squelches that already weak output towards
stations on the same and adjacent channels (although FM stations promote
themselves by their frequencies, as far as the Federal Government is
concerned, they utilize channels).

Here's a "covergage map" as designated by the FCC, but it is overly
generous as far as real-world reception is concerned:
