RE: [HCDX]: Canada 6160

["John MacDonald" <JDMACDONALD@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

CBC Radio 1 is relayed on 6160 most evenings during the time you mentioned.
It's obviously strong here via ground wave (I am about 100 miles from the
station).  I can't figure out their schedule; they seem to be on-again,
off-again. Right now (1645), for example, 6160 is silent. I enjoy CBC programs,
and have gotten to rely on 6160 as being more listenable than 690 (the local
outlet in Vancouver, which seems to always be under noise.  It makes me wonder
how long 6160 and 690 will last, with the reports of CBC AM outlets in eastern
Canada moving to FM.  This past weekend I was vacationing in the Olympic
Mountains as was surprised to hear CBC Radio 1 on FM -- so QSL 6160 while you
can.

Logged on 22/8 from home - a CBC station on 6160. Jazz program from
0726-0759, then news. ID as CBC as well as Radio 1. Can't work out if
Vancouver or St. Johns. Haven't heard either from Australia before, though
geographically I would think Vancouver.

Phone number at one stage given with area code 780 which may or may not
help.

Anybody know anything about these stations that could help with the above
info? I have QSLed Vancouver when on a trip to Canada (logged from Banff)
2 years ago but I would like to do so from this side of the Pacific. St.
Johns would be better!
