Blech. Hopefully there will be some good propagation before the Canadian stations go off the air.

Is Dec 15th firm for the shutoff? I'll start recording a few days before. Then we'll have silence interrupted by the occasional NDB, before they all go QRT as well.

I don't know how firm it is, so I guess we'll find out in about a month or so.

I'm reminded by the saying: "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

There is that.

Also have to ask, how many people are listening to those stations? So far, I count two for this stuff. No idea how many others are or how many are using it for location information.
