Default Future of SW station CKZU [6160 kHz](Vancouver)

Howdy,

Would you know if the wire antenna atop the CBC building (in Vancouver)
is the one they use for transmitting (HF), or just a monitor? I've always
wondered HI HI ...They're a great prop check here on the west coast.

Thanks.

I'm not 100% certain, but I believe that the SW transmitter and antenna are
co-located at the MW transmitter site.

Hi Glenn,

Just received this e-mail:

Hello Ron:

The future of CKZU [6160 kHz] is currently being evaluated. There is a
distinct
possibility
that the operation could close. However a final decision has yet to be
made, and

will depend in part on whether the FM application is approved and the
new service
is implemented. At this point a "wait and see" approach is best.

Thank you again.
