There has been a lot of discussion lately about the 40 watt CBC low power repeaters that remain on the AM band. I believe it was the CBC’s original intention to have them all converted to FM by 2015. Running a bit behind schedule.
I have compiled a list of those remaining LPRT’s. As you can see the bulk of them are in British Columbia, while Alberta, Saskatchewan, and the Maritime provinces have none left. Hope I didn’t forget any.
Remaining CBC LPRT’S on the AM band, not including LPRT’S that have been granted flips to FM
