Actually, what makes CKAC so well-known is that it's the world's first French speaking radio station. It is also interesting to read that in 1922, the station was transmitting with 2000w which is a considerable amount of power for that time.

This is sad news indeed. CKAC is one of the great French stations in
Quebec. I QSL'd them from Seward AK back in 1965.
