[IRCA] CKKY-830 Wainwright AB reapplies to CRTC to move to FM

[Deane McIntyre <dmcintyr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

CKKY-830 Wainwright AB has reapplied to the CRTC to move to FM (101.9  
MHz, 57 kW, 135.9 meters).

Their previous application to move to FM was rejected by the CRTC on  
the basis that

their owner (Newcap) would have three FM stations in the same market  
due to signal

overlap with their Lloydminster station CKSA-FM. In this application  
there is a deep null

towards Lloydminster to get around this problem. If this application  
is approved, it will

allow CFCW-790 Camrose AB to go ahead with their planned move to 840.

16. Wainwright, Alberta
Application No. 2009-1662-9

Application by Newcap Inc. for a broadcasting licence to operate a  
new FM radio

programming undertaking to replace the existing AM station, CKKY  
Wainwright.

The new station would operate on frequency 101.9 MHz (channel 270C1)  
with an average

effective radiated power (ERP) of 57,000 watts (maximum ERP of  
100,000 watts with an

effective height of antenna above average terrain of 135.9 metres).

The applicant indicated that the existing Country music format of the  
station would

be maintained on the FM service.

The applicant requests permission to simulcast the programming of the  
new FM station

on CKKY for a period of three months from the date of implementation  
of the new station.

The applicant also requests, pursuant to sections 9(1)(e) and 24(1)  
of the Broadcasting Act,

 the revocation of the licence for CKKY effective at the end of the  
simulcast period.
