Patrick,
It's funny you should mention "the Ocean" (98.5 in Victoria). For some
strange reason, that station has a fantastic signal here, and was even
easily received barefoot by the Sangean DT-200VX during the "Ultralight Radio
AM-DX Shootout" recently. In fact, all of the little radios could get it here,
in
Puyallup, WA
There's probably nobody in IRCA more fanatic about FM-DX as me, so I'm
pretty confident of getting CKBD-FM, hi. I have built 2-element and
4-element FM quad antennas using my ham radio experience, and when mounted on
the 40'
tower, these can make Portland, Vancouver and Victoria come in just like
locals. Portland can be dicey sometimes depending on propagation, but B.C. is
usually a piece of cake, hi. So CKBD is not really going away for me, just
shifting to FM-stereo.
73, Gary
