Soon, 1070 am from Moncton NB will be moving to 106.1. The 1060 tx will
remain on the air for 3 months.

====================

Seems that the CBC is advancing its agenda to abandon the AM band.

Yeah, to FM with its shorter range. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

There are eleven FM transmitters in a province roughly 100 miles by 100
miles. Five of them are Class B (50kw/150m) or bigger. Any place in
New Brunswick the new Moncton FM transmitter won't reach is already
covered by at least one other existing FM transmitter that carries the
same program.

Really, with this FM move in Moncton, the only place where the CBC is
losing coverage is in the United States. Now, I know there will be a
bunch of Americans who'll miss the easy access to CBC Radio. (I know I
miss 740/Toronto and 940/Montreal, and will not be celebrating when the
day comes that 990/Winnipeg moves) But I suppose if I was a Canadian
taxpayer, I wouldn't see the provision of a radio service to the United
States as being a very high priority for my tax money.

The FM transmitter will have a much better signal inside buildings,
especially in Moncton's downtown area.
