It should be noted in passing that the dubious decision of our Canadian
Broadcasting "Corporation" to abandon their treaty-granted "clear
channel" AM frequency deprived countless Ontarians of hearing the
programming for which their taxes had paid...?!
99.1 FM has an approximate range of 100 miles or less...which does
NOT include much/most of northern Ontario...?! OTOH, 740 AM
(now passing through a series of content-free broadvasters!) was
receivable in ALL of Ontario...in fact, much of North America!
I have no idea if CBC has set up an array of FM "repeater stations"
to attempt to recreate the wide range of 740 AM after sunset...?!
