Hello,

I can usually pick up WPHT 1210 at night up here in Boston and listened to the 
Phillies games at times instead of using the XM feed.  XM uses the home team 
feed, so this is handy when the Phillies are away.

Hatfield Quality Meats is usually an advertiser for the games.  They are over 
in Hatfield near the old Fest location in Kulpsville.
