What's nice is that you can listen to Coast To Coast AM on this station. And, since it's on-air 24/7, it makes for a great 49M propagation beacon.
Recently, a co-worker quizzed me on, "What would happen if you were to apply reverse polarity to the Energizer Bunny?". Having no idea, I asked, "What would happen?". The answer is he'd keep coming and coming and coming...

Customarily sporadic reception here in South Central Wisconsin - not sure why as I'm only 434 miles from Toronto .  CFRX has always been a crap-shoot re: intelligibility of signal.
