WNCK


89.5 FM WNCK began in 2002 as a commercial-free Adult Contemporary station run by the owner out of his home in Nantucket, Massachusetts.  They soon entered into an agreement with Boston's WGBH  which simulcast their mix of Classical, Jazz, Blues, Celtic and news programming.  In 2009 they began simulcasting the Classical music of Boston station WCRB.  Since 2020 they have been a Country station branded as "89.5 Quahog Country".  (Quahogs are the largest of the edible hard clams, sometimes called chowder clams.)  I wonder how many non-commercial, full-time Country stations exist in the United States.  Are there any others you can think of?
