** CANADA. 04/30/07 - Several Vancouver and Victoria AM stations have pulled
the plug on stereo broadcasting. In Vancouver, CISL 650, CKST 1040 and CFUN
1410 dropped stereo some time ago, while CHMJ 730 and CKWX 1130 removed it when
new transmitters were installed. CKBD 600 and the new CJRJ 1200
I e-mailed the chief engineer at WSM in Nashville, asking if they would be
broadcasting in HD now that the FCC had lifted the nighttime prohibition. Watt

Haven't noticed any night iBLOC, and not for lack of looking. Neither is it
due to 'fact', 'there is no known interference from HD'.
They pulled this in secret, hoping to jam spectrum from all corners of the
country, 24/7, before anyone caught on.
Citizens caught on.

Bob was quite likely at that 1971 convention. I must admit and belatedly
apologize. That Convention occured during the lowest ebb in my life and I was
barely cognizant of what was going on.
