Re: [IRCA] RE CBE 1550 last day

[David Faulkner <drdsfaulkner@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think my parents had a button set for CBE in our `55 Pontiac.  We used to listen to their classical mx in the car when they picked me up from school.  Somehow their signal seemed clearer then than it has recently when I've been home.  They never made loggings on 1550 difficult because they were off AN and could be nulled at LSR/SS.  My AN loggiings included WOKJ, WBSC (DX Test), XEBG and even KKHI.  My LSS loggings included WNTN, WAAY, WSHN, KIWA and KQXI.  Still, they'll leave an empty spot on the dial.

It's a little sad to see the end CBE.  They were my
first Canadian QSL on January 14, 1964.

After
getting out of the Navy in 1970 I made a solo car trip
around Lake Erie.  On the north shore of the lake I
spotted CBE's Xmtr site.  I snapped a picture of the
building with the big, bold CBE call letters clearly
visible.
