CBMO-1240 Lac-Mégantic Quebec, a 40 watt relay of CBVE-FM Quebec City
is now silent,
and the CBC has applied to the CRTC for authorization for a temporary
LP FM transmitter
(104.1 MHz, 50 watts, -38.7 meters) to serve this community for three
months.
Don't expect CBMO to come back however, as reading between the lines of
the full application I suspect that eventually a permanent FM
transmitter
will be installed to serve this area.

Lac-Mégantic, Quebec
Application No. 2008-0942-8
Application by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, to amend the
licence of
the radio programming undertaking CBVE-FM Quebec.
The licensee proposes to add a temporary low power FM mono
transmitter at Lac-Mégantic
to broadcast the programming of CBVE-FM, in order to adequately serve
the population of Lac-Mégantic.
The licensee states that this transmitter is temporary for three
months and is
necessary because the present low power AM transmitter, CBMO, had to
be turned
off due to renovations to the site made by the municipality of Lac-
Mégantic.
The transmitter would operate on frequency 104.1 MHz (channel 281LP)
with an
effective radiated power of 50 watts (non-directional antenna/antenna
height of -38.7 metres).
This temporary low power FM transmitter will restore the Radio One
service to Lac-Mégantic.
73,
