Where Local GTA Radio Station Transmitters Are Located

Ever wonder which local GTA stations are coming off the CN Tower or First Canadian Place? Or even from somewhere else? This site claims to tell you where each one is located, along with those on the outskirts of the city. I don't know how up-to-date it is, but it's interesting to see where the towers are for some of the biggest broadcasters (and some that are not so big) in the city, along with a few that are out of town.

Looks to be very well maintained. For 104.7/107.7 Buffalo, it has their new logo they just switched to last week.

Looks good. Up to date. 95.3 has the current Energy Logo, not the older classic logo. 
(to name one example)

*Whoops! They have the current Rise radio listed for 1380, but they accidentally forgot to delete Country 1380...?

Interesting that they list CHTO, the Greek format at 1690, as also being at 1490. As far as I know, they were granted permission for this repeater but never actually put it on the air - at least not yet.

But I'm impressed that they included CFRX, CFRB's little mentioned shortwave station at 6070. I'm not even sure if it's still on the air, but most sites probably wouldn't bother listing it.  

Why WTAM Cleveland is on the Toronto list of stations is beyond me, but it's nice to see it.

Ive seen the site before.  Its pretty precise for example CIDC it even labels it on the road the transmitter is on "Charleston Side Rd Caledon"

CHAA 1610 is listed as "glen park".  Where's that?  Near yorkdale?  The transmitter is a stone's throw from Cherry Street, down by the lake, on City of Toronto property - I believe it is next to a maintenance building- on Unwin Avenue.

Re: Where Local GTA Radio Station Transmitters Are Located

Great resource, but may not be updated much/anymore, as the first entry I looked up was nearly 10 years out of date:  CJCA-930 Edmonton moved their transmitter to a new site in Devon almost 10 years ago.  On the other hand, CFCW moved from 790 to 840 just a few years ago, and that new frequency is shown.
