Featured photo: The CFPL 980 transmitter site in the south end of London, Ontario (formerly part of Westminster Township). This shot shows the actual transmitter building, as well as the base of one of the four towers. Visible also is an abandoned parking lot, which is left over from the days when transmitter sites were actually manned. This site is located along Wellington Road South at Scotland Drive, right next to Regina Mundi Catholic College. Photo taken 20 April 2005
