Actually CFH is a split facility. The receiver located in Mill Cove Nova Scotia while the associated transmitter site is presently located in Newport Corner Nova Scotia about 25 miles to the north.  The split facility eliminates desensitizing of the rx while the tx is operating and makes two bombing targets to eliminate a single station. I used to live 12 miles line of sight from the CFH tx site and let me tell you a 600 foot wire antenna dumps VOLTS of signal into a receiver from the 250 KW longwave transmitter. In fact the driver stage ran continuously and the finals were keyed. I could copy the driver feed thru power at S-9. Signals were considerably stronger when the finals were keyed. LOL
