I was reading that the Punjabi stations in Vancouver BC has asked the CRTC to 
shut down the U.S. based Punjabi stations broadcasting from the WA into Canada. 
I presume they mean 1110 Oak Harbor, 1550 Ferndale and 1600 Blaine WA. How can 
the CRTC stop a legally licensed U.S. broadcaster from the signal reaching 
Canada? Now, I figure they may be able to stop the stations from getting 
Canadian advertising, but I do not know the laws in Canada in that regard. I 
remember well the Mexican border blasters sending tons of signal into the U.S. 
No one stopped those stations. Some are still in English and broadcast to the 
U.S. CJRJ 1200 is calling the U.S. stations pirates, even though they are 
legally licensed stations on U.S. soil. Can the CRTC do anything? I do not see 
anything they can do, unless they have some control on the advertising from 
Vancouver. Any comments?

The CRTC could have an equivalent of the Brinkley Rule (where the FCC 
forbade US studios from feeding Mexican transmitters - though waivers 
are not too hard to get for it - they just wanted to prevent crooks like 
Dr. John R Goat Gland Brinkley from exploiting legal loopholes for his 
sham treatments (and increasing Nazi sympathies).   I've no clue if this 
is the case, though.

Hi, Group:
 I note the Topaz Designs AMBC list says KXTR, 1660, Kansas City,  
is on.  I was through there twice last week  there was not a peep  
to be heard out of 'em.  Thought I read awhile back they were off  
 probably gone for good.  Anybody know?


I live a short distance from their tower.  They're loud and clear here.
