[NJARC] DX from Canada

[Al Klase]

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the report.  I'm impressed by XERF.  Things are quite 
different in NJ.  Most of us never hear Mexicans.

But, let me concentrate on stations that we can hear reliably down 
hear.  This is stuff for reliable entertainment via old radios, rather 
than hard-core DX:

As you mention, 740 CFZM out of Toronto, Zoomer Radio, has an excellent 
mostly music format:



Find them between WOR and WABC.

Another favorite is  900  CHML in Hamilton, ON.  They are really strong 
in our area.  They bill themselves as "Global News Radio." but broadcast 
old radio programs from 10 PM to 1 AM every day.  Find the just north of 
WCMS.

Use your radio!
Al
