Here is NW OR, I get all the AM stations from the Lower Mainland. CBU-690 is by far the strongest with their main lode aimed right at me. Listenable on car radios. CKWX-1130 is second in signal, followed by CKNW-980 and CKMJ-730. CKNW puts about 4500 watts ERP to the SW. Next is probably CISL-650, fair days. Then RJ-1200, then CKST-1040, which is much weaker days and nights than they were at the old site. If anyone strong was on 1040 days, CKST would be pretty much wiped out. According to their old pattern, they put hardly anything S/SW days. Followed by CFUN-1410, then CJVB-1470, which is QRMed by KELA Centralia, and last CHMB-1320, which is weak under KXRO days. The Victoria stations are decent, but with CKMO-900 having the edge over CFAX-1070. I am about 200+ miles from Vancouver and 160 from Victoria as the crow flies. Portland is far enough South to lose several of the weaker stations, plus more QRM. Living in Portland in the 70s for a time. CKWX was always the best, but still weak there days. CBU was probably second, followed by the old CKLG (CKMJ).
