Great catch! The station is located in Ada, Michigan and has been reported
as running 200 watts, although I heard them here too and Patrick Martin
thinks they may have increased power... :^(... the call sign has been
reported as WBHD and WJNZ... I guess the NZ stands for New Zealand :^)

I know the Maryland station, WMDM, is talk format, heard id'ing here as
"Bay Talk..." not heard with sports - yet
