<http://www.crtc.gc.ca/archive/ENG/Decisions/2007/db2007-410.htm> CJCH Halifax - Conversion to FM band The Commission approves an application by CTV Limited (CTV) for a broadcasting licence to operate a new English-language FM radio programming undertaking in Halifax to replace its AM station CJCH, subject to CTV’s sale of its voting interest in Metro Radio Group Inc., the licensee of CKUL-FM Halifax. Introduction 1. CTV Limited (CTV) filed an application for a broadcasting licence to operate a new English-language commercial FM radio programming undertaking in Halifax, Nova Scotia to replace its AM station CJCH. The proposed FM station would operate at 101.3 MHz (channel 267C1) with an effective radiated power of 100,000 watts. 2. CTV indicated that the new FM station would continue to operate within an oldies musical format targeted to adults between the ages of 35 and 64. Approximately 8 hours of the broadcast week would be devoted to local spoken word programming including news, sports, traffic and weather as well as entertainment information and event reports. In each broadcast week, the station would air just over one hour of news, of which a minimum of 50% would be local. 12. As set out in the appendix to this decision, the licensee is authorized to simulcast the programming of the new FM station on CJCH for a transition period of three months following the commencement of operations of the FM station, or for any other period granted by the Commission subsequent to the submission of an application. Pursuant to sections 9(1)(e) and 24 (1) of the Broadcasting Act, and consistent with the licensee’s request, the Commission revokes the licence for CJCH effective at the end of the simulcast period. 73, Deane McIntyre VE6BPO _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
