Application 2004-0486-4
Public Hearing in the National Capital Region
1 December 2004 |
| |
CBUT-35 Sechelt – Technical Change
|
|
1. |
The Commission approves the
application by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) to amend the
broadcasting licence for its television programming undertaking CBUT
Vancouver, in order to change the channel of its transmitter CBUT-35
Sechelt from 19LP to 18LP. |
|
2. |
The CBC stated that the use of channel 18LP
will provide a better quality signal to listeners in the Sechelt area
who are currently experiencing poor reception of CBUT Vancouver. |
|
3. |
The Commission received an intervention in
support of this application and a comment, which commended the CBC’s
service to Canadians. |
|
4. |
The Commission reminds the applicant that,
pursuant to section 22(1) of the Broadcasting Act, this authority
will only be effective when the Department of Industry (the Department)
notifies the Commission that its technical requirements have been met,
and that a broadcasting certificate will be issued. |
| 5. |
Given that the technical parameters
approved in this decision are for a low-power unprotected television
service, the Commission also reminds the applicant that it will have to
select another channel if the Department so requires. |
