The FCCdata.org still shows the original transmitter location for 95.3 FM. Is there a way to contact them to update the transmitter location?

Does Joey Castillo has a weekend show slot on Fresh 103.1 in London? I heard him this morning on 103.1 while doing some arrends. I also thinks He does the afternnon drive show on 91.5 The Beat in Kitchener. I cannot stand him. He is not funny and cool. I switch to a different station the moment I hear him.

Over on the Canadian Digital Home site another Paramount owned channel is pulling the plug later at the end of the month. MTV2 will be removed from TV providers such as Sasktel, Telus, and Hay Communications. From the wikipedia article it says: "In Febuary 2024, Hay Communications and Telus announced on their websites that the channel would be wound down permanetly on March 29 2024. This would leave the main MTV channel to be the last remaning Paramount Global channel owned by Bell Media." 
We had Paramount Network shut down at the end of 2023 here in Canada now MTV2? Who watches MTV2 anyway. But the american one is staying on. No word if that one will be shutting down too.

As of April 1st Bell Fibe customers who have the standard Fibe package will no longer be able to watch US networks in that package such as CBS, ABC, NBC,FOX and PBS.

Also part of the cuts. CFPL-TV London video cameraman Jim Knight was a victim of the Bell cuts. He worked at CFPL-TV for 46 years.

CTV Kitchener noon news replaced by a game show, kind of ironic.

Yeah. It is kind of ironic. Did they let go of Daryl Morris who was the news at noon anchor? From what I can tell a few people at CTV London were let go according to what Carlye Fieset mentioned on the night the newscast aired about the cuts. They moved Amandalina Letterio to the 11PM anchor. At CTV Windsor Stefanie Masotti is just the sole anchor on the 6PM news and Ricardo Venenza does the 11PM news. Bell should have NOT bought these TV stations in Southwestern Ontario. Now the only weekend news on TV i will have to watch is CHCH which has an excellent newscast and it is not owned by a big greedy telecom company.

Speaking of holiday news shows, it's interesting to me the decision each local TV station here made.

None of the big four (CTV, City TV, Global, CBC) did a noon newscast. (City TV never does, the rest do.)

CTV did only a half hour news at 6, and only on CP24, because CFTO was carrying non-stop football all day. They only had in one anchor (Rahim Ladhani) and one reporter (Beth McDonnell) and the rest were pre-taped stories from other CTV stations around the country. There was also no weather person, which is sadly becoming all too common at the station. The 6 was then immediately repeated on CP24, which needed to fill the time. They also announced at the end of the newscast that there would be no 11:30 update.

City TV did its usual 6 o'clock hour long show, but nothing at 5 PM. It also skipped the 11, showing a Christmas choir instead, an annual City TV tradition stretching back to the Colin Vaughan era. 

CBC did no news shows, 6 or 11.

And while I believe Global did a National show at 6:30, there was no 5:30 update and nothing at all at 6 or 11. Instead they aired "A Conversation with the Prime Minister" where their 6 PM news would have been. 

All totaled, excluding cable, there were only two actual local newscasts on the air in Toronto on Christmas Day. Neither were especially well staffed. 

CHCH did not have a Morning show or the 6 and 11 newscasts on Christmas day, CTV London CTV Windsor and CTV Kitchener did not even have newscasts on Christmas day ether. On the other hand CTV London at 6PM had the Celebration of 70 Years of CFPL-TV on Boxing Day which was a nice thing to air. No 11PM newcast on that day ether. I believe CTV Barrie had no news on boxing day? Correct me if I am wrong. CTV Kitchener had a half hour 6PM newscast and the normal 11:30PM newscast. CTV Windsor had no news on Boxing day as well. So you can say that people in Windsor could trust the Detroit news on those days where CTV Windsor does not have any newsca

Yep I was right. It seems that he wanted to get out of the news business. At least he was mentioned during this segment.

You can see the difference.

What happen to this reply that Radio active posted to this topic?

Cannot watch the clip with their new crappy player. It sucks. Will not play.

So in London we only have 2 talk radio since 1290 CJBK shut down in June of this year. We got CBC Radio 1 93.5 FM London and 980 CFPL. CBC London has 2 shows. One locally in the morning for London and a regional show for Southwestern Ontario like Windsor, Sarnia, London etc. On the other hand 980 CFPL AM used to have a non stop all news show where it would report traffic and weather during the non stop news. But they instead air shows like The Morning show with Devon Peacock and London Live with Mike Stubbs who used to be on 1290 before he moved to 980 sometime in 2016 or 2017. Don't get me wrong Devon Peacock and Mike Stubbs are very good show hosts. I think when the pandemic hit back in 2020 and many people were working from home. There were less people on the roads in London and not much to report on unless there was a car accident on Wonderland Road or Oxford Street. So that's why I guess they had to cut the non stop news show on AM 980 CFPL.

So the question is where do you get your traffic reports from? For me I would listen to CBC London's Morning show for Traffic.

This is a similar move of like what Disney did to their channels in the UK, Europe, Australia and Asia asking people to sign up for Disney+ to continue enjoying the shows they love. Surprised that the Disney channels are still on the air here in Canada and in the US. Maybe the shows that aired on Paramount Network will be exculsive to Paramount+? We will have to wait and see.
