When I was a teen we lived out of range of CFNY, but coming to Toronto meant getting to tune in on the car radio. Felt like a big city. CFNY: The Spirit of Radio is a great doc from @alancross.bsky.social & @highballtv.bsky.social & @tvodocs.bsky.social about the impact of the station from '78-'92.
