(meteorobs) Radio Meteor listening dies in Canada!

Not entirely correct, I think, Michael.

My understanding is that here are certain stations which are considered by the 
CRTC as "Mandatory Markets" and MUST convert to digital; others, especially 
those serving smaller communities, can remain as analog indefinitely as long as 
they are below Channel 52.

Of course, whether the remaining analog stations would be of any use for meteor 
listening is open to debate...

all that as Canadian TV stations go digital at end of August!
