CFH Halifax.  Has used it off and on for decades and has returned.
Note that although CKN also uses the frequency simultaneously at times, 
if you had good signals in the past, it was CFH and not CKN as even with 
CFH off, CKN is weak in E US.

I have visited both locations.  Note that CKN is actually at CFB 
Esquimalt-Matsqui and CFH at New Port Corner.
