My condolences to the family but to be honest, I'm not sure it's high on my list of "must hears" and I'll probably just catch the highlights on the 6 o'clock news. 

I am always curious when I see postings offering condolences to the family.   Will Mila or the children be reading this thread on the SOWNY forum?

The piano reminds me of Badfinger's "Come And Get It", which I'm sure somebody will point out was written by Paul McCartney (and where it charted on CKOC).

There was dead air on CKNT on Saturday morning at 7:00 a.m. and again at 7:30 a.m.  I wonder if anybody noticed?

Under the open carrier I heard KZIM-Cape Girardeau MO and WERC-Birmingham AL at 7:00 a.m.

During outgoing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's 30 minute news conference today in San Francisco questions were asked & answered in both french and english.
 

I missed the news conference.   Did the PM answer any questons about Bell's sale of CKWW, CHAM and CKOC?  And what has Pollievre had to say about CKDX becoming "Hot Country 88.5"?

What about 1610-CHEV ?

My 2021 Honda Civic has 6 AM and 12 FM presets.

The 6 AMs are set to 590, 680, 940, 1010, 1230 and 1570.   940, 1230 and 1570 are for DX starting/jumping off points.   I suppose if I wanted to listen to 1050, I would use 1010 and move up four spots.   And if I wanted to hear ranting about the Buffalo Bills I can just tune down fro 590 to 550.

FMs are 88.1, 94.9, 97.3,, 99.1, 102.1, 107.1 and 107.9 on the first tier.
....and 91.7, 97.7 on the second tier.  I forget what the other four are currently as they get changed..but they are  for FM DX possibilities (like 88.7).

Not sure how many listeners CKPC actually had.  I suppose they can always try and listen to K-Loathe on 102.5 out of Buffalo.

The latest early spot release brings together two familiar faces from the classic "Breaking Bad" - including the original Walter White.

I don't get the humour. But then I've never seen an episode of Breaking Bad.

It makes sense if you ever watched the show.    It sure beats seeing Aaron Paul on the Bet 365 spots numerous times during every hockey and football game (when Wayne Gretzky and Connor McDavid aren't shilling for BetMGM).  

I did my part and watched.    Did not watch on TSN last year, but I was there in person.

If you want to hear a real radio play-by-play of the Indians Guardians- Blue Jays game you can listen to WTAM on 1100 right now.     And instead of spots for Jack Links and the Armstrong Bird Seed you can enjoy the Chick-Fil-A Double Play Inning and commercials for Legacy Roofing and Progressive Insurance.

Wow, thanks for that. I'd never heard of the "sequel" before. And still they never learn...

The irate Redskins fans who showed up the NBC Richmond studios makes me think of the tragic story of Roy Spencer, the father of former NHLer Brian Spencer.   (Roy driving to CKPG-Prince George to force them at gunpoint to show his son's first game with the Toronto Maple Leafs as opposed to the scheduled Golden Seals-Canucks on Hockey Night In Canada)

Both WTVN Columbus (news talk) and WTEL Philadelphia (Black Information Network) are audible on last night's 6pm recording.

Yes.  From  Section 115.   

If I wasn't attending I would be most certainly watching it on TSN while flipping back and forth with the endtail of the Bills-Buccaneers and later Chicago vs. Green Day.

Last year, they went on November 2nd, the earliest date ever. If they do it again that early, that's less than a month from now.

My premature condolences to all those working in stores where the signal is pumped in over the speakers all day and all of the night. (Which is a Kinks song from 1965, and doesn't qualify as a Christmas tune...)

Maybe CHFI will play the Kinks' "Father Christmas" instead of Mariah Carey?

Of course, there's already Christian music on 1250 and 1380 with much better signals (especially 1250).    I know, they are on AM, and who listens to AM?
