Our first clue that ‘NW is in trouble was when the two ‘hosts’ had to flog pillows, don’t the pay them enough?? They might suddenly realize that most of their ad revenues come from companies that cater to an older crowd. Your replacement programming for Coast to Coast is horrible and who on earth would this appeal too?! They are a Globalist Fake News, Destroy Trump Propaganda station. d. I have been listening to CKNW for 40 years. Actually, it’s not all old-time radio. I find him pretty annoying and one sided. There will be many empty nights knowing we won’t be able to tune in to Coast to Coast. Miss the good old days of Rafe and even bannerman. I started listening to it as Construction engineer with Ministry of Transportation looking after Hwy 1 widening west of Port Mann Bridge and Oak St Bridge retrofit work – all at night time. It’s a station that provides a great mix daily of thought provoking topics and attracts a large and loyal audience. The last I heard, Coast to Coast was the number one program throughout the entire day on CKNW. For a given topic, it feels like a station like CKNW can only dedicate 10 minutes out of 30 - With the rest being ads, more ads and news and traffic updates. Thank you Actually, I find a lot of the weekend programming on NW is palatable. I think NW doesn’t want people to know how well Trump is doing. RHR had a signal so weak that to broadcast a show called Coast to Coast on a station that had a signal that didnt even reach the city limits was sort of ironic. On January 2, 1949, CKNW switched frequencies to 1320 AM and increased its power from 250 watts to 1,000. Lol. Bad decision! Time to move back to New West and get down to the level of your audience and out of the fancy tower. Wake up people!! UNICO SMART 10 HP lub 12 HP . At least there were some hard questions asked. In February 1956, Bill Rea, experiencing health problems, sold CKNW to Frank Griffiths and the Allard family, who went on to form Western Broadcasting Company, which later became Western International Communications (WIC). As a long time listener of NW, if these young ones only knew what radio was all about, instead they get to grow up with the corporates which have ripped the heart our of our local radio. Noory always makes mistakes and sucks up to everyone. You know, he said something about Ben Mulroney a few weeks ago. I was ur listener–since U had Rafe Maire on–daily–then bill good–& so on——but if U want 2 lose ur listeners–keep putting on stuff that has little structure—-no thinking behind any o f it–is that what the new generation is like??????? HI Bud, I also noticed her absence. How dumb it is. CKNW uses a four-tower directional antenna from a site near Surrey, while its studios are located at TD Tower in downtown Vancouver. Whoever has been making these decisions is wrecking the radio station. As it was said on another thread, is not RHR missing out on the valued ratings between 10 and midnight which NW proved to do well with. Maybe George Noory will see an uptick in southern British Columians subscribing “for pennies a day” for unlimited access to years worth of shows. CKNW also airs the syndicated program Coast to Coast AM and on the weekends with Ted Radio Hour. No stories draw more attention here on this website than stories about Corus Entertainment.

Just moved from L.A. after 28 yrs of writing TV and hoping to get back to the old Calgary which barely exists anymore. When C2C came in the picture, there was a noticeable rise in the ratings. Could only take about 5 minutes of the start of each show before turning it off. I didn’t particularly enjoy his show, but I feel Simi has done more damage to the brand since she took over. Metro Vancouver, British Columbia. They suck. I say bring back the Owl Prowl with Jack Cullen. Congratulations! 980 CKNW on internet radio, So the genius at the top thinks 40s and 50s theatre radio is better than the most enlightening show ever created by man LOL!!!!!! My mother in her eights actually called me this evening to ask if the show was still playing on my Calgary station? We need to have our horizons broadened! Wejdź i znajdź to, czego szukasz!

Another good program gone and replaced by old radio shows and rehashed political non-sense.
