I have never understood why a station that has to be directional north 
(to protect 1260 Boston, ex-WEZE, now WMKI) would have put its site 
NORTH of the city it was trying to serve!

CIHI/CKHJ has been quite well heard in New England for a long time, and 
even here in western NY from time to time.

(And the WEEI/WEZE confusion is completely understandable - the WEZE 
calls and religious format that used to be on 1260 are now on 590, which 
used to be WEEI!)
