[IRCA] CJOY-1460 Guelph ON applies to CRTC to move to FM
CJOY-1460 Guelph ON has applied to the CRTC to move to FM
(95.7 MHz, 9.5 kW, 53.7 metres). I suspect that the reason that
CJOY did not apply to move to FM some years ago is that until
recently the CRTC did not allow a true oldies station to operate
on FM, as the amount of hits from before 1981 that could be broadcast
was limited to no more than 50%. This rule is still in effect in
French language markets however.
