The application of CJYQ-930 St. John's Newfoundland to decrease night power from 25 kW to 3.5 kW, to go non directional, and to change the transmitter site has been approved by the CRTC. I suppose that this is not good news for their listeners in Europe:)
<http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2010/2010-755.htm> CJYQ St. John’s – Technical change 1. The Commission approves the application by Newcap Inc. (Newcap) relating to the English-language commercial AM radio programming undertaking CJYQ St. John’s to change the authorized contours of its transmitter by decreasing the night time transmitter power from 25,000 watts to 3,500 watts, changing the antenna radiation pattern from directional to non-directional, and changing the antenna site. The daytime transmitter power will remain unchanged at 25,000 watts. The Commission did not receive any interventions in connection with this application. 2. Newcap stated that the current antenna site, approved in CJYQ St. John’s – Technical change, Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2009-253, 7 May 2009, is unusable as local weather conditions have resulted in the deterioration of the antenna. 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]
