Spectrum Direct is Industry Canada's database of licensed radio transmitters/receivers: <http://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/sd-sd.nsf/eng/h_00025.html>. Everything from tiny cell repeaters through airport surveillance radars to giant radio masts is listed with operator, call sign, elevation AGL, and frequency.
Could the data be used in OSM? The pages have Important Notices attached: <http://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/ic1.nsf/eng/h_00065.html>. While the data format is horrid*, and the coordinates are only given to seconds of arc, it could be useful to add metadata to installations you've already mapped. That's if the licence would work ...
