[IRCA] Canada 6 MHz stations

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

This really has nothing to do with the X-band, but here`s the scoop:

CFCX 6005 Montreal closed several years ago, as did CHNX 6130 Halifax.

CFRX 6070 Toronto has been off for more than a year, but is supposedly going to
resume once CFRB can get around to repairing it. Not holding breath.

CFVP 6030 Calgary is still on, relaying CKMX 1060. I hear it occasionally with
100 watts when Cuban jamming and Marti are off. (Mon 0300-0900 UT), or maybe
after 1200 when skywave is still working.

CKFX 6080 Vancouver was 10 watts, a great DX target. Off for years, not worth
repairing by CKWX. But just a few months ago they got around to turning in the
license.

CBC is still running CKZU Vancouver and CKZN St John`s both on 6160 and both
often heard, the latter often with Goose Bay programing relayed back to
Labrador.

That does if for non-RCI usage of 6 MHz band. Unfortunately none of these
stations get any respect from the US or other countries which feel free to
usurp their long-established frequencies. 6070 has CVC Chile on it most of the
time. 73, Glenn Hauser
