[HCDX]: CIGO drifted



CIGO Port Hawkesbury, Nova Scotia was noted on 28 NOV 1998
at 2308-2312 UTC on 1410.5 kHz (i.e. 500 Hz high of its normal
1410 channel assignment).  The signal here at Billerica, MA
(near Boston) was quite strong.  Late '70s / early '80s hits
by Van Halen, Styx, and Journey were played and a CIGO ID
was clearly heard at 2311 UTC.

I'd suspect that listeners of WPOP Hartford, CT will be
bothered by the 500 Hz het unless they're listening from
very close to the WPOP transmitter site.

The CIGO split should make for an easy Nova Scotia log
throughout eastern sections of Canada and the US, at least
if you've got a selective receiver.
