>From Scott Fybush's "Northeast Radio Watch"
"*Eastern CANADA is losing one of its biggest remaining AM signals in just a few weeks. The CBC signed on CBAM (106.1 Moncton) in January, and that set the clock ticking for the end of 50,000-watt, non-directional CBA (1070 Moncton), which has long been a beacon of CBC service not only for much of the Maritimes but for the northeastern U.S. as well. "We're hearing that CBA will breathe its last on the AM dial early on the morning of April 7, with the final sign-off coming at 8:30 AM ADT (7:30 AM EDT)." Full details at http://www.fybush.com/nerw.html. Admittedly it isn't shortwave (for the SWPROGRAMS group) but it is yet another sign of a broadcaster leaving existing frequencies and services to better serve its target audiences (that term wears on me...).
