Don't they already use it the most? I doubt they will scrap it.


Wish you were right, but scrapping the site is part of the plan at

Rumor has it... that a Consortium* of All
American 'Patriot' [USA] Shortwave Radio
Broadcasters will jointly lease the RCI
Transmitter Site in Sackville, NB since it
is 'perfect' for beaming back 'in-country'

US/FCC Regs -now...-if-only-it-were-true-
