radio listening log rak
================================================================
Channels that I have received using my Tecsun PL-660 from
Le Village, Montreal, Quebec. In contrast to Pittsburgh, the
selection of channels here is most disappointing: there are no
classical music channels, no jazz channels, few oldies channels,
etc. Radio-Canada's CBFX-FM is the only channel I have found
carrying jazz and classical music on a quasi-daily basis.
