CFVP 6030 am 0404 utc 29 Jun 2021
« on: June 29, 2021, 0409 UTC »
Good reception at peaks, noise and fades though. English service.  Tuned in at 0358 as Radio Marti was signing off, a few minutes later English speakers were heard.  Bonus as grey line happens to be running almost directly between Calgary and Bay Area at the moment.

0404 Sounds like old radio skit. OM "Hold on we gotta get...." , background laughter
0408 Skit continues with fades and noise, OM and YL in conversation
0415 Reception has been just above noise floor but peak happened, OM "Just look down there..."

CANADA. 6030, Calgary - CFVP relaying CKMX (AM 1060), 0811 UT, on July 6. Wonderful to have this low powered
station back on the air again; very respectable reception, even with Cuban jamming; many IDs; comedy skits by Patton
Oswalt, Hal Sparks, Doug Benson, etc.; PSA for ongoing relief efforts by the Red Cross BC fire appeal; slowly fading up
and down. My audio is posted at http://bit.ly/3xAakUd .

This evening (July 8 UTC), I tuned in at 0358 UTC to hear Radio Marti and CFVP mixing. As soon as Marti signed off at 0400 UTC, I got the best signal I've heard yet since the station reactivated. Station ID for Funny 1060 heard at 0402 UTC, in between standup comedy clips.

By 0518 UTC, still a good signal when I checked, this time playing a local ad.

By 0705 UTC, however, the signal was mostly being swamped by noise on the frequency.

I tuned in again at 0356 UTC this evening (July 10 UTC) here near Seattle and heard CFVP mixing almost evenly with Radio Marti; good enough signal to catch an ID. It's now in the clear after Marti's signoff right at 0400 UTC. Very readable audio this evening, despite jamming noises and some fading.
