While on coffee-related business in Vancouver, discovered that the owner of espressotec.com (one of Canada's largest online vendors of coffee stuff...), Reg James was one of the creators of Yellowknifes first independant AM radio stations - CJCD AM 1240 - which went on the air in 1979.
Reg provided me with a thick file of original documents, CRTC applications, scripts for the first broadcasts, rate sheets, stats etc and newpaper clippings. It was a totally unexpected goldmine! Hopefully will be cooking up a LONG Podcast about the very earliest days of CJCD AM in the rugged wilderness of the North West Territories (Canada) http://www.cjcd.ca/ -- Colin Newell Editor-Creator www.coffeecrew.com | www.dxer.ca Webmaster - www.bobharris.com _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://arizona.hard-core-dx.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
