Wow, that would be a huge change here.  CBU is like an old friend and heard in much of the Province.  I found that it was also well heard along the WA and OR coasts when I was down there in November.  600 is one of a handful of AM stations broadcasting in AM Stereo, at least that's what my truck's radio told me.  They do tend to splatter quite a bit (as does 690), so I guess I can live with them going to FM.  I'd really love it if Village 900 moved to FM, though! ......Walt.
