1610 Non stop Christmas Music - WEDG The Wedge
« on: November 25, 2010, 1703 UTC »
I've been hearing Christmas music on 1610, since before 1600z this morning. Non stop, with no IDs.  The only licensed stations for 1610 are both from Canada, and I don't think it is either of them. In fact, I think I can hear CHHA under this station.

Any ideas?

Did the station sign off at any point in the morning, or are they on around the clock (evenings?)  The only thing coming in here on 1610 are the two Canadians right now.

I had them non-stop. By late afternoon, the Canadian stations were coming in over them.
