[IRCA] CFXG-1230 Grand Cache AM applied to CRTC to move to FM

[Deane McIntyre <dmcintyr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

CFXG-1230 Grand Cache AB, the 50 watt relay of CFXE-EM Edson AB, has
applied to the CRTC to move to FM (93.3 MHz, 190 watts, minus 81.7 meters)

<http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2010/2010-539.htm#9>

Grande Cache, Alberta
Application No. 2010-0970-5
Application by Newcap Inc. to amend the broadcasting licence of the English-language 
commercial FM radio programming undertaking CFXE-FM Edson.

The licensee proposes to add an FM transmitter at Grande Cache, Alberta, to broadcast 
the programming of CFXE-FM  in order to adequately serve the population of Grande Cache.

The transmitter would operate on frequency 93.3 MHz (channel 227A1) with an effective 
radiated power of 190 watts (non-directional antenna with an effective height of antenna 
above average terrain of -81.7 metres).

The licensee seeks to replace its existing AM rebroadcasting transmitter CFXG Grand Cache 
with an FM rebroadcasting transmitter.

The licensee states that, because electrical and other interference levels have increased 
and the expectations of the population with regard to quality have risen, the low-power 
AM signal has become unreliable and unsatisfactory.

73,

Deane McIntyre VE6BPO
