BZZZT - wrong.
St Pierre and Miquelon used to broadcast shortwave and AM to North
America. In fact it was one of the pretexts for MacKenzie King's plans
to invade the Vichy controlled islands before the Free French showed up
and got everyone in a tizzy (including the Americans who were pro-Vichy
at the time).
Since then, the islands broadcasted AM programming of Radio France
Outremer on 1375 kHz until early 2004.
The antenna is still there BTW ...
