It certainly does explain it. And when CBA moved from maybe 60 miles
southeast of Moncton to Moncton proper, the signal here deteriorated
somewhat. I vsited the RCI facility in 1977. Back then, people lined up to
take the hourly tours. I'll bet there were 15 people on the tour that my
wife and I took. The RCI tours were listed in the AAA Maritimes Tourbook
just like non-radio-geek tourist attractions, and I suspect that I was the
only radio geek on that particular tour. For sure, Ruth was not a radio geek
at all.
