Re-licencing just might be possible, calling the 7.335 MHz a "broadcast".


Well, I always thought that stations like WWV and CHU were
"broadcasts". I mean, they're receivable on any standard radio with a
shortwave band.

So the format is "all time all the time". Not really all that
different from all-news stations like Cuba's Radio Reloj, which mix
newscasts in between the time-checks all to the sound of a ticking
metronome.

All the best for CHU. I would really be dissapointed if they go - I
always could depend more on CHU's signal than our own WWV. Just better
reception.
