Brad Karp 1st CHTM Newscast

Beep-PUNCH BEEP

With the icy weather today, I bring out of the archives an hour of coverage during the great ice storm of 1998, recorded off air from 830 CFJR-AM Brockville ON. Featured is an interview with then mayor Ben TeKamp, then Police Chief Barry King, Ty Michaels with news and of course, veteran broadcaster Bruce Wylie. You'll hear a few commercials of the day, and at times, you'll notice the audio cutting out. Fun Fact: As the ice continued to coat the CFJR transmitting towers, it caused the transmitter to reflect the RF power back into itself, which can cause very serious damage to a transmitter, and cause it to not work very well. A new digital AM solid state transmitter that we'd find at most stations today would have just shut off, but the old tube transmitter out at CFJR just burned through the ice, and while it laboured at times, and the audio would drop for a second, it was one of the only stations to stay on the air during the natural disaster. There was no cable TV, no internet, limited cell service, and no social media, but AM radio, an almost 100 year old technology came to the rescue.
