Steve,

I thought I had CKZN from St John's, NL Canada

here in Twain Harte, CA USA.

S-Meter : S8~S9 with Good Audio

CBC Radio One ID at 09:05 UTC followed by
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBC_Radio_One
CBC Radio Overnight ID and Radio Sweden ID
http://www.cbc.ca/overnight/index.html
Channel Africa ID @ 10:21 UTC
Africa Rise and Shine ID @ 10:22 UTC

-But- a Check of the CBC Radio Overnight's
Broadcast Schedule shows both :
http://www.cbc.ca/overnight/schedule.html
CKZN from St John's, NL on 6160 kHz {24/7} and
CKZU from Vancouver, BC on 6160 kHz {24/7}

However - What I was hearing was the individual
Radio Show {Re-Broadcast} Times for Pacific
Daylight Time (PDT) and that it was CKZU from
Vancouver, BC Canada instead.

Considering that CKZU is located in Richmond, BC
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richmond%2C_BC
123.12W 49.08N and is Rated at 1 KW plus it uses
a Directional Antenna designed to Beam it's Signal
Up North into Canada and not down south into the
USA; about 1000 Miles.
