Applications have been submitted to the CRTC for new 50 kW stations in Montreal on
690 (French) using the old CINF transmitter and 940 (English) using the old
CINW transmitter to the CRTC:

Both stations will be glorified TIS stations. Seems a waste of 50 kW class A
facilities to me.
Log what you can on 690 and 940 while you can still do so:)
