Re: [IRCA] Early TP report Oct 2 - Victoria BC

V7AB installed a brand new Nautel NX25 transmitter this summer after their
20 year old 25kw unit needed replacing

No idea from this end after speaking to Jeff Welton at Nautel what they're
running power wise, I doubt it's full tilt... Many of these stations don't
run them at quite full tilt, so as to preserve their life a bit longer
