Default Boston's WBIX troubled story

YES, of course it's not shortwave, except that WBIX's second-harmonic would
fall in the SW band.

Here's the story (in part)

Victims Shocked Over Boston Radio Fraud
Sun Nov 28, 7:24 PM


BOSTON - The photo shows Bradford C. Bleidt, a prominent member of Boston's
business community, dressed in suit and tie at a party for staff of the
business news radio station he was selling as it ramped up to a new 24-hour
format. But the faint smile on his face, drink in hand, seemingly enjoying the
get-together, betrayed the inner turmoil spinning inside him.

The next day, the savvy but sometimes overly optimistic entrepreneur showed
another side - Bleidt tried unsuccessfully to take his own life, the only
miscue in his elaborate plan to end a two-decades-long deception that
investigators believe robbed as many as 140 investors of tens of millions of
dollars.

Before his suicide attempt, Bleidt recorded and sent at least nine audio tapes
describing his "great big Ponzi scheme" to regulators, business associates and
family.
