[IRCA] CFCW-790 Camrose AB applies to move to 840

[Deane McIntyre <dmcintyr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

CFCW-790 Camrose AB has applied to the CRTC to move to 840 kHz, still
with 50 kW directional days but with 40 kW directional (different
pattern) nights. As before most of the signal both day and night
will be directed in a broad lobe to the north in order to serve
Edmonton.

The move to 840 is made possible by the applications of co-owned
(Newcap) stations CKKY-830 Wainwright AB and CKBA-850 Athabasca AB to  
move
to FM (the CKBA application has not yet been released by the CRTC)


At night the cochannel QRM from KGHL Billings MT and KJRB Spokane WA
is a real problem for CFCW over most of Alberta.

Camrose, Alberta
Application No. 2008-0934-5

Application by Newcap Inc. (Newcap) to amend the licence of the  
commercial
English-language AM radio programming undertaking CFCW Camrose.

Newcap proposes to amend the licence by changing the frequency from  
790 kHz to 840 kHz.

Newcap advises that the change in frequency will restore the coverage  
and service to
the listeners in north-central Alberta.

73,
