CHOR Summerland – Conversion to FM band
1. The Commission approves the application by Astral Media Radio

on business as Astral
Media Radio G.P. (Astral), for a broadcasting licence to operate a
new English‑language
commercial FM radio programming undertaking in Summerland, British
Columbia to replace
its AM station CHOR. The terms and conditions of licence are set out
in the appendix
to this decision. The Commission received interventions in support of
this application.
2. The new station will operate on frequency 98.5 MHz (channel
253A) with an average
effective radiated power (ERP) of 20 watts (maximum ERP of 100 watts
with an effective
height of antenna above average terrain of 348 metres). It will offer
a mainstream Adult
Contemporary music format targeting adults aged 18 to 54. The local
programming will
include 12 hours and 24 minutes of spoken word programming each

6. As set out in the appendix to this decision, the licensee is
authorized to simulcast
the programming of the new FM station on CHOR for a transition period
of three months
following the commencement of operations of the FM station. Pursuant
to sections 9(1)(e)
and 24(1) of the Broadcasting Act and consistent with the licensee’s
request, the
Commission revokes the broadcasting licence for CHOR effective at the
end of the simulcast period.
