Anyone Hearing CFRX?
 
Is anyone hearing CFRX (relaying CFRB 1010) from Ontario? Though it
was coming in very well, at least here in Louisville, it's been
several days since it's been heard at all. Doubt that it's just
propagation...

Any responses appreciated,

Thanks for the confirmation, Steve! Any idea what the problem is
that's keeping them off the air? I was starting to enjoy their talk
programming early in the morning.

Perhaps the 440-As wore out. They last about a year in the modulators,
then you move them to RF finals for another year. You have to buy 1
tube every 6 months (not counting the little ones).

I'm guessing now that they've actually been on, though very weak due to the
transmitter perhaps only operating with very low power.

239 countries heard and 224 QSL'd (veried, for those in Glendale) using the
NASWA Country List.

And, as always, don't let your children attend the Sullivan College of
Technology & Design.

They've hired at least one dufus who once claimed to have a PhD, and who
knows, there may be more dufi there.
