Does she speak with a Canadian accent?

Can't tell. I didn't hear her say any giveaway words (dollar, about, plaza, been), and not a single "eh."
She does call out wave height in meters.

During a recent VHF tropo opening, I discovered the CMB, Continuous Marine Broadcast, which I copied on 161.775 MHz. It's supposedly operated by the Canadian Coast Guard, so I'm guessing it and the other CMB stations are not among the Environment Canada facilities slated to be cut. If you are not a ...

Anybody else getting poor reception of 2, 4, 7 and 50 HDs on Comcast? Mine have been unwatchable since yesterday with extreme pixelization...

No issues from Comcast Detroit.

Kevin Dietz isn't a weather guy, and I thought he worked at WDIV. Are you thinking Kevin James?

Kevin James? Doug Heffernan in The King of Queens?

Have you not read any of the previous posts??

A lookup of KYW's history will also show that its original location under Westinghouse was in Chicago, from 1921-1934, then to Philly then to Cleveland then back to Philly.

If you knew the significance of the number 33, specifically the 33rd degree, you wouldn't be laughing.

Am so laughing.

Booga Booga.

Of course, Schitt's Creek was available during its run to those of us on the border on CBC (CBET 9).

A few days ago, I was copying transmissions on each of the weather band channels, south and south central MI and northern Ohio and Indiana, and two from Environment Canada. The Tropo map was showing only minimal tropo conditions over this area but was enough to stop the scanner on each channel for a...

...the variable capacitor in the VFO....had a physical "governor" that prevented the VFO from operating out of band. I guess a suitable lesser capacitance variable capacitor wasn't available. I'm guessing the variable cap's physical range was mechanically limited so that only the most linear part o...

We know that a light bulb does radiate, just a little bit. It's just that, to not generate QRM on the bands (especially if our shacks were in the basement), many of us used one in place of a real dummy load to check out our transmitters. Those tube finals and pi network output stages could handle th...

"Special electronic circuitry simply drains the high-frequency pollution out of the wiring system"

Seriously? Really?

Not how any of this works.

I believe 2015 was the last model year of Chevy Equinox with a CD slot,
