[Deane McIntyre <dmcintyr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The application of CFGT-1270 to move to FM (97.7 MHz, 50 kW, 77.6  
metres) to
move to FM has been approved by the CRTC. This was that last station  
in this
part of Quebec still operating on AM.

<http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2009/2009-507.htm>

The Commission approves applications by Groupe Radio Antenne 6 inc.  
for a
broadcasting licence to operate a French-language commercial FM radio  
station
in Alma to replace the AM station CFGT

The licensee is authorized, by condition of licence, to simulcast the  
programming
of the new FM station on CFGT for a transition period of three months  
following the
commencement of operations of the FM station. In accordance with  
sections 9(1)(e) and 24(1)
of the Broadcasting Act and at the licensee’s request, the Commission  
will revoke
the broadcasting licence for CFGT at the end of the simulcast period.

The station will operate at 97.7 MHz (channel 249B) with an effective  
radiated
power (ERP) of 50,000 watts (maximum ERP of 50,000 watts with an  
effective height
of antenna above average terrain of 77.6 metres).
