Re: [IRCA] CFAX 1070 going silent

[Mike Sanburn <mikesanburn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Alaska must be a great place to DX from. Close to Continental U.S., Canada, Russia, and anything that comes over the "pole". Plenty of legendary stations inside the state as well. I know a couple DXers managed to log KFQD at the Seaside OR IRCA convention. Unfortunately I couldn't. Seward is a nice town from what I've seen in travel films. ---Mike Sanburn

If C-FAX goes, that would leave Victoria without any AMs. I will tune in after Midnight, depending on how strong KNX is tonight, what I may hear.  C-FAX does not block 1070 anyway off the Eastern Beverage. Thanks.
