You have three weeks to get your statements in to the applicant
and the CRTC to prevent the de-licencing of this no longer current
10 watt station on 6080 kHz.

Probably a waste of time writing to the CRTC. Why? Because it's the owners of
CKWX-CKFX-SW who have requested the delicencing. If they don't want the licence,
who are the CRTC to tell them they must keep it?

It might be better to simply write to the owners of CKFX and try to persuade
them to put it back on the air, but that might not work either. Why? Because
they've not had it on in years, and probably don't have any interest in it.

That's to bad as it was always an interesting and elusive DX target.
