OK, if you're sure the frequency is 162.525
Yes the channel is 162.525. I actually see the antenna from my place. At the top of the highest elevation on the island north end. So I guess its new location is 49 41 47 -124 26 07. We'll go check it out during a future hike in the area.
then the station is CGX-451.
Thanks for the call letters. I learned something new.
CGX-451 is easy to remember. As it reminds me of one of my favorite book titled "Fahrenheit 451".

Oh -- is the station back on the air yet, or still silent?
Yup. My SOS radio is back now. Sunday December 20th, 2020 at 5:30pm PT. So it was down for 24 hours.
Their loop message stop. Now there are back to their normal broadcasting. Just normal stuff. No emergency. No unusual messages. So my guess is that it was just a coincidence of unusual events all at the same time.

Glad to hear it’s back up. Anon above has good point that the audio may be fed to station over internet so an isp issue could account for the temporary outage.
