Christina comes back for the Time Warp? I hope so!
I'm pretty sure the CRTC will yank their licenses if 89X and 93.9 try to hyper-focus on Detroit again, following the stunt Bell tried to pull with them a few years back...

Re: The FCC Will Vote This Month on All-Digital AM
Why don't they adopt the European DAB standard and move all the AM stations there? I get that AM has some great nostalgia, and getting rid of it would render the few antique AM radios I keep as cultural oddities, but this plan is just silly. The European model of DAB/DAB+ is a non-starter because t...

Re: WNWO (NBC) Toledo granted FCC license for new 275 kW DTV transmitter.
Never understood why Toledo television stations broadcast with such low power? Is this an error by the FCC? Toledo vs. Dayton, mind you these are both midsize cities. Now Dayton area has much more terrain versus Toledo area which is mostly flat. However on the radio side it seems like Toledo statio...

Re: Pirate?
It's most likely a pirate... 87.7 and 87.9 are notorious frequencies they use, being just below the "official" FM band and aside from two actual licensed LPFM stations in California, they're completely empty and unused (especially due to the severe adjacent-channel interference caused to any digital...

Re: Environment Canada to end weather radio.
How can we convince Environment Canada is pennywise/poundfoolish to decommission the VHF WX radio system? That's like dumping all the VOR for aircraft because "they can use GPS" - yeah, until GPS doesn't work, then WTF do you do? Same for cell systems overloading during a weather emergency- I didn'...

Re: CKLW-FM/CIDR's Original Transmitter Site
The Canada Trust Building is now the Metropolitan Building. It was built sometime in 1929 and is still around, sitting at 176 University Street West (at the NE corner of the intersection with Victoria Avenue).
