Three More FM Stations Plus One More

Saturday I added three more stations to the Toronto FM log. These were received on the Honda radio in my car.
  1. CKDO-1, 107.7, Oshawa ON, 2009-07-18, 18:25-18:33, Oldies - parallel to 1580 AM.
  2. CBCO, 91.5, Orillia ON, 2009-07-18, 18:37-18:40, CBC Radio One.
  3. CKBT, 91.5, Kitchener-Waterloo, ON, 2009-07-18, 18:37-18:40, "91.5 The Beat".
In addition to these three, there's one more to mention: CBC Radio Two on 90.7. It's not going into the log yet because I don't know where it's from. There are two repeaters of CBC Radio Two from Toronto on this frequency: CBL-2 in Paris, ON, and CBL-3 in Orillia, ON. I'm midway between both of them and both are approximately the same strength (4 and 4.8 kW), so it could have been either. I lean towards it being the one in Paris because there was very mild tropo that morning towards that direction, but I don't really know.
