Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] CBE-1550 Windsor ON applies to move to FM (97.5, 3.2 kW)



This is sad news for me. I was just thinking last night that at least CBE is on AM and I can hear CBC from them on a radio in my car etc.

CBE-1550 Windsor ON has applied to the CRTC to move to FM (97.5 MHz, 3.2 kW, 130.1 meters) with a second transmitter at Leamington ON 991.5 MHz, 6.1 kW, 58.7 meters). This will replace the never implemented nested FM relay on 102.3 MHz. CBE will go silent after the usual three month simulcast period. Excluding a few 40 watt low power relay transmitters this is the last (assuming that CBI will also actually move) English language CBC station
on AM between Manitoba and Newfoundland.

Windsor and Leamington, Ontario
Application No. 2008-1352-8

Application by Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to convert radio station
CBE Windsor from the AM band to the FM band.

The applicant is also proposing to establish a new FM transmitter at Leamington.

The new station would operate on frequency 97.5 MHz (channel 248B) with an average effective radiated power of 3,200 watts (maximum effective radiated power of 19,000 watts with an effective height of antenna above average terrain of 130.1 metres).

The Leamington transmitter would operate on frequency 91.5 MHz (channel 218B1) with an average effective radiated power of 6,100 watts (maximum effective radiated power of 10,400 watts with an effective height of antenna above average terrain of 58.7 metres).

The applicant is requesting, pursuant to sections 9(1)(e) and 24(2) of the Broadcasting Act, the revocation of the licence of CBE effective at the end of the simulcast period.

The applicant has indicated that it will apply, within 30 days of the implementation of the proposed FM transmitter at Windsor, for the revocation of the authority granted in Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2008-101 for a nested FM transmitter on the 102.3 MHz frequency in Windsor.

The applicant has indicated that it will launch both the Windsor and Leamington transmitters within one year of the approval where, at which time, it will operate in simulcast mode for three months. Following this period, the applicant is also requesting, pursuant to sections 9(1)(e) and 24(1) of the Broadcasting Act, the
revocation of the licence of CBE Windsor.

73,
