CBE-1550 Windsor ON, CBEF-540 Windsor ON and CFOS-560 Owen Sound ON have
all applied for nested FM relays in order to cover their city of
license,
as detailed below. In all cases the associated AM station will remain
on the air. Interesting comment by the CBC regarding the Windsor market-
"In addition, it noted that half of the potential listener base has been
lost to the Detroit market and half of what remains does not listen
to AM at all"

Windsor, Ontario
Application No. 2007-1124-3
Application by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to amend the
licence
of the English-language radio programming undertaking CBE Windsor.
The licensee proposes to add an FM transmitter in downtown Windsor to
broadcast the programming of CBE, in order to adequately serve the
population of Windsor.
The transmitter would operate on frequency 102.3 MHz (channel 272A)
with an average effective radiated power of 690 watts (maximum effective
radiated power of 3,300 watts/antenna height of 74.2 metres).
The licensee advised that a "nested" FM solution is the best means to
improve the access to CBE and enhance the quality of service to
Windsor-area listeners,
especially those in Windsor’s downtown core. In addition, it noted
that half
of the potential listener base has been lost to the Detroit market
and half
of what remains does not listen to AM at all.

Owen Sound, Ontario
Application No. 2007-0840-7
Application by Bayshore Broadcasting Corporation to amend the licence
of radio
programming undertaking CFOS Owen Sound.
The licensee proposes to add an FM transmitter in Owen Sound to
broadcast the
programming of CFOS, in order to adequately serve the population of
Owen Sound
and the Grey Bruce Region of Ontario.
The transmitter would operate on frequency 96.1 MHz (channel 241A)
with an
effective radiated power of 5,450 watts (non-directional antenna/
antenna height of 105 metres).
The licensee states that CFOS suffers from serious day-time signal
deficiencies
in its main market of Owen Sound from October to March. This
transmitter will
fill in the coverage gaps to the area as well as in the Grey Bruce
Region of Ontario.
