[IRCA] Move of CBDS-690 Pukatawagan MB to FM approved by the CRTC



The  Pukatawagan MB ( a 40 watt relay of CBWK-FM Thompson MB)

<http://www.crtc.gc.ca/archive/ENG/Decisions/2008/db2008-108.htm>

CBWK-FM – New transmitter at Pukatawagan
1.
The Commission approves the application by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) to amend the broadcasting licence for the English-language radio programming undertaking CBWK-FM Thompson, Manitoba in order to operate an FM transmitter at
Pukatawagan to replace its AM transmitter CBDS.
2.
The transmitter will operate at 102.5 MHz (channel 273A1) with an effective
radiated power of 200 watts.
3.
The CBC indicated that the FM transmitter is intended to replace its existing AM transmitter CBDS and that recently, the Mathias Colomb Cree National Chief and Council advised the CBC that the CBDS site is contaminated and they will proceed to decontaminate it by June 2008. The CBC stated that the FM transmitter
needs to be operational by this date.
4.
The Commission did not receive any interventions in connection with this application.
5.
The CBC further advised the Commission that there will be no simulcast period. The licensee must then cease operation of its AM transmitter CBDS Pukatawagan. Pursuant to sections 9(1)(e) and 24(2) of the Broadcasting Act (the Act), and consistent with the CBC’s request, the Commission amends the licence of CBWK-FM
Thompson by deleting the AM transmitter CBDS Pukatawagan.
