WBFO-FM at 88.7 cannot be heard in North York in my car.  The issue may be a weak signal but having Newmarket's CKDX at 88.5 and the ethnic station CIRV at 88.9 certainly don't help.

After reading more about this, I have learned that only BBC Sounds wont be available outside the UK. You will still be able to hear BBC World Service and BBC Radio 4 on the new site at BBC.com later this spring. In addition you will still be able to access BBC World Service on certain NPR stations such as 24 hours a day on WRVO HD3 available as an online stream. Furthermore, BBC World Service will continue to be available on Sirius XM.  And, most importantly, all BBC radio stations will continue to be available on Tune-In and other radio apps.  So, you wont need to pay for a VPN to receive BBC Radio.  I enjoy listening to BBC World Service and also BBC Radio 4 Extra for drama which continues to be produced for radio in the UK.

I am surprised that nobody has yet commented on Trump's reality show performance at the White House today.  If Trump really is siding with Putin and no longer cares about the rest of the free world including Canada, are we in danger of losing our freedom of the press and media in a world dominated by the likes of Donald Trump (Corleone) and Putin?  He now controls which media have access to White House events. Who will defend the free world?
The fact that today's episode of the new Apprentice show was on display for the world to see was both embarrassing and an eye-opener of what Canada could be facing next.

Peter's podcast which also runs daily on Sirius XM is so much better than any talk show on 640 or 1010.  Minimal or no interruptions for countless commercials, no traffic-weather reports and Peter spenda almost a full hour discussing
an issue in depth with knowledgeable guest experts.  He has a very pleasant demeanour and never talks down to his audience unlike some talk show hosts in this city.  I have made it appointment listening for me on a daily basis.

All the Twilight Zone episodes from five seasons are available on demand from CITY-TV. On Rogers Xfinity.
the Night of the Meek is Season 2 Episode 11....you can easily find it and no VPN is required. CITY TV is still
showing the series every Sunday night st midnight and you can also find it airing every night at 12 :30AM on MeTV.

Many classic sitcoms from the old Uncle Earl's site have been sorted & organized via Internet Archives.  The new site
can be accessed at sitcomsonline.com.  Also, at the bottom of the first or second screen of listings, look carefully
and you will find a free streaming link to Antenne TV in Detroit and two more links to MeTV channels in Missouri.
If you enjoy classic TV you will find these streaming links invaluable.   Enjoy!!

In 1959 I won my first transistor radio from CKEY. It was a pocket size 8 transistor, the Sony TR 86. I still have this radio for sentimental reasons though it no longer works.  It had great selectivity and sensitivity for such a small radio but rapidly used up 9 volt batteries.  I took it with me anytime I went out. Lots of gteat memories.

As is often the case nowadays when an iconic radio station reaches a milestone or goes silent its true heritage is all but forgotten. WCBS was the flagship Eastern station of the CBS Radio network  During WWII it carried the renowned voices of Edward R Murrow's CBS news team with detailed accounts of the latest war news.  Listeners in the eastern half of North America relied on its powerful signal to hear such popular shows as Jack Benny, Amos n Andy. Bergen & McCarthy, Lux Theatre and of course Orison Welles' War of the World.  CBS Radio and later CBS-TV became the most trusted network for news coverage. This is truly a sad loss of an iconic clear channel frequency,  Thank you
William Paley for creating the network & this station.

In the early 50s prior to May 27, 1957 CHUM was a minor player on the Toronto radio scene.  It was a dawn to dusk station which meant that in the dead of winter its listeners had to wait until close to 7:00 AM for it to start its morning show and would lose its signal at 5:00Pm during afternoon drive. The big players at the top of the ratings were CFRB and CKEY. If you wanted MOR music with top notch news and variety (specialty programs) you stayed with RB.  If you 
 wamted only music and news you stayed with CKEY. The music on all four private stations was very similar MOR
 with CFRB and CHUM providing the odd country program and CKFH leaning occasionally more to jazz and big band.
During the early50s CHUM played the top 10 hit parade songs each Saturday afternoon at 1:30PM and CKOC also played the weekly top 10 hit parade songs every Sunday afternoon at 12:30PM. Some famous people that got their start at CHUM during the early 50s included newsman Harvey Kirck, actor comedian Larry Mann , a DJ, and quizmaster Monty Hall's brother Bob Hall.

I was watching the CTV Toronto 6pm news and at about 6:27pm switched over to NBC for their newscast only to discover that they were covering true breaking news that Trump habd been shot at his rally in Pennsylvania.
This should have been flashed as a bulletin on every channel but CFTO did not break the story when it happened.
The American  networks as well as the Canadian news networks were all over it.  I had a strange sensation of Deja vu
from 11.22.63.  Actually this incident is not surprising with the proliferation of guns and mentally unfit people who have possession of them as wel as Trump's enemies. Was this a lone shooter and like 61 years ago will we ever know the truth?

Chrisphen you have absolutely no evidence for the outrageous claim you are making, I would like to request that the moderator remove your post. I thought we were going to keep highly sensitive politicsl statements out of this forum

I have found a free classic TV website which is almost as good as the now defunct Uncle Earl's Classic TV.
The only issue is that the audio won't work on a mobile device (iphone or ipad) so you have to watch it on a Windows
device.  The link is:  PDTV.LIVE    It also has quite a few classic movies.  Enjoy!

There appear to be some omissions.  Surely Jack Benny's program, the Saturday night NHL hockey broadcasts and
the Wayne and Shuster Show must have been in the top 15.  Jack Benny was only available through US stations
since it was sponsored by Lucky Strike ads which were embedded in the show not allowing for Canadian ads.
Both NHL hockey on Saturday night and Wayne & Shuster aired on CBC radio as well as CFRB.

I strongly disagree with Kevin. Peter has been very active in his retirement. He is writing books and currently hosts a daily podcast on Sirius XM and podcast platforms called The Bridge. It is an hour-long discussion on national and international affairs with minimal breaks. Excellent thought-provoking topics and discussions. It is very popular and far better than the bits & bytes of boring talk radio. Every Monday his guest is Janice Stein from the Munk school discussing the Middle East and Ukraine conflicts. He is doing what he enjoys doing in retirement and since he is no longer a national TV anchor I see nothing wrong in his working in advertising/promotion to make extra income.
More power to him. He sounds great on his podcasts. By the way, what is Kevin doing in his retirement years?
