That's amazing.  KITS in San Francisco can't get a station ID from Kate
but tiny little WWSU here in Dayton can.  "Hi, this is Kate Bush and you're
listening to WWSU".  It's generic but it's her.  It sounds like she's on the
phone with a really bad connection.  WWSU is Wright State's radio
station and when I say tiny I mean parvial (10 watts).  I can't pick it up when
I leave the parking lot.  Obviously, someone there has connections.
