CKNW

AM 980 CKNW is a News/Talk station in Vancouver, British Columbia.  They went on the air at their original dial position of 1230 AM in August, 1944.  The 50,000-watt station airs call-in shows with mostly Vancouver-based hosts.  CKNW carried Vancouver Canucks hockey games every season from 1970 until 2006 when they moved to 1040 CKST.
Current CKNW program director Larry Gifford hosts an excellent radio-centric podcast for people in the industry as well as radio geeks like me.  Take a listen to the Radio Stuff Podcast here.
