Didn't 93.5 CFXJ once apply for some rebroadcasters on the same channel? I vaguely recall something... If so, was there ever an outcome?
They were denied.
Thanks RadioAaron and Evuguy.
The repeater for KX 96 has always struck me as textbook. Years of DXing and I've never been able to 'hear' them apart. I've only logged both in Toronto because the Toronto repeater came along later and I'm presuming it's what I hear downtown. I believe an engineer named Gus (lost on a last name) helped architect that beauty!
It's my wife's favourite station so I have some familiarity with it. It seems to work quite well. There's a patch wihere the DVP meets for 401 where they seem to get in each other's way, but other than that it's seamless. At least that's for the analog signal.

Re: massive fm skip now...
Yes, I'm not far from that intersection. Signal contours around there are probably coming close to equal strength between FCP and Lake Ridge sites, thus the distortion. I suspect KX wanted to fill the void when CISS 92.5 dropped its urban country format. So, the KX signal downtown is clean and that's the audience they were aiming for that the main Lake Ridge site wasn't reaching. When you get into an area where the two signals get close to equal and then some reflections from nearby objects, that's where the problem starts.
Anyway, I checked today and CFXJ is back to normal, so someone finally realized and shut the aux site off. Probably was fixed on Monday but I didn't get around to checking yesterday. If I were a sponser over that weekend, I think I would be asking for some make-goods.

Saul now that I have posted the clip any idea about 101.9. The station is not only ID'd but they play a promo for another show on the station as well. Also my new question about Fox Sports radio....Thanks
That's just too weird. Signal is solid. I'll go on a limb here and wonder if it's CFRC Kingston.
Ashley and Brad Kissin Oldies is WKZA Jamestown NY 106.9 as you've noted. Nice signals between that and the translators. You might tune into CFRC's stream at the same time either any day or the same day of the week you heard this (Saturday).
If you want to isolate stations into individual clips, I like Audacity. I also put date and time into my MP3 labels. Example: 98.3 CFLY ON Kingston Tr 16AG25 0945.mp3
Your guess about The Kingston Queens University station is probably the answer. Will monitor the stream on Sat if I remember.
