Last day to petition CRTC for FM signal in Vancouver

Zero hour approaches.

Wednesday at midnight (okay, technically speaking midnight is on Thursday, but you know what I mean) is the deadline to get letters of support for CBC Radio One on the FM dial in Vancouver into the CRTC.

You can keep it simple. Just tell them how much you like CBC Radio programing, and that you think it’s crucial for the Lower Mainland to have access to the national broadcaster on the FM dial. And feel free to pester your friends. They’ll thank you for it later.

To do this, go to the form on the CRTC website and click on the button #2007-18. Check the box beside #200714239 (in the list, this is the second CBC application) and go to the bottom of the page and select next. Then just follow the instructions to complete your letter of support. (Please copy CBC on your e-mail at regulatoryaffairs@cbc.ca)

I loved watching the lovely and talented Patty Sullivan who twists and turns and cooks food with Mamma Yamma, I loved listen to CBC Radio Overnight and I love Cathy and Pat between 1 and 6 a.m. every morning, except for weekends in Prince George, B.C. from 5 to 6 a.m., where the Saturday Report from Toronto is not aired on PGTV, along with CKWS becuase of Cougar View and Local News, Saturday Report will add in Prince George, B.C. in September 2008 after PGTV disaffiliates from the CBC Television Network.
