Haldimand County, Ontario
Application No. 2005-0546-4 |
|
Application by Bel-Roc Communications
Inc. (Bel-Roc) for the use of frequency 92.9 MHz (channel
225B1) for the operation of the new FM station approved in Broadcasting
Decision CRTC 2005-169,
dated 20 April 2005 (Decision 2005-169). |
|
The present application is filed
in response to Decision 2005-169
in which the Commission stated that it would only issue a licence
to Bel-Roc if it submitted an application proposing the use of another
FM frequency that is acceptable to both the Commission and the Department
of Industry. |
|
Bel-Roc is also proposing to
change the authorized contours by decreasing the effective radiated
power from 13,300 watts to an average effective radiated power of 3,300
watts,
by increasing the antenna height and by relocating the transmitter
(maximum effective radiated power of 13,000 watts/antenna height of
109.4 meters). |
|
The 92.9 MHz frequency is technically
mutually exclusive with an application submitted by CHCD Inc. (2005-0603-2). |

|

power of 1,352 watts (maximum effective radiated power of

|

relating to the licence of radio programming undertaking CJRT-FM

Application No. 2005-0350-0 |
|
Application by Durham Radio
Inc. to amend the licence of radio programming undertaking CJKX-FM
Ajax, Ontario. |
|
The licensee proposes to add an
FM transmitter at Toronto to broadcast the programming of CJKX-FM
in order to adequately serve the population of downtown Toronto. |
|
The transmitter would operate
on frequency 95.9 MHz (channel 240A) with an average effective radiated
power of 85 watts (maximum effective radiated power of 220 watts/antenna
height of 312.4 metres). |
|
This would be a synchronous
repeater of CJKX-FM Ajax, using the same frequency as the mother
station. |
|
Approval would entail one
common signal distributed by both transmitters. |
|
The applicant advised that the
synchronous repeater will correct the interference problems in downtown
Toronto, an area which falls within the authorized 0.5mV/m contour of
CJKX-FM Ajax. |
