in bc AM is disappearing fast, which is funny because FM is nearly useless around hills and trees.
in prince george for example, no AM is left - there were some old AM antennas on land belonging to a friend of mine's dad, but before i could look into maybe restarting them a couple of rocket surgeons decided to try and relocate them.
they tried to fell them like trees, they twisted and snapped as they're built in several sections.
AM revival takes another one right in the chops!
LPFM (low power FM) is getting HUGE in the states, calgary is a big enough city in my opinion that you could reach enough people, say downtown, to make it worth your while.
something tells me that LPFM may not be allowed in canada, maybe i just haven't heard of it happening here yet.
