TFG Communications Inc.
Saint John and Rothesay and surrounding areas, New Brunswick |
|
Application 2006-0899-5
Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2006-100

CJEF-FM Saint John – New transmitter at Rothesay
|
1. |
The Commission approves the
application by TFG Communications Inc. to amend the broadcasting licence
for the radio programming undertaking CJEF-FM Saint John, in order to
operate a low-power transmitter at Rothesay, to serve the population of
Rothesay and its surrounding areas. |
2. |
The new transmitter will operate at
95.1 MHz (channel 236LP) with an effective radiated power of 50 watts. |
3. |
The Commission did not receive any
interventions in connection with this application. |
4. |
The Department of Industry (the Department)
has advised the Commission that, while this application is conditionally
technically acceptable, it will only issue a broadcasting certificate
when it has determined that the proposed technical parameters will not
create any unacceptable interference with aeronautical NAV/COM services. |
5. |
The Commission reminds the licensee that,
pursuant to section 22(1) of the Broadcasting Act, this authority
will only be effective when the Department notifies the Commission that
its technical requirements have been met, and that a broadcasting
certificate will be issued. |
6. |
Given that the technical parameters
approved in this decision are for a low-power unprotected FM service,
the Commission also reminds the licensee that it will have to select
another frequency if the Department so requires. |
7. |
The transmitter must be operational at the
earliest possible date and in any event no later than 24 months from the
date of this decision, unless a request for an extension of time is
approved by the Commission before 5 October 2008. In order to ensure
that such a request is processed in a timely manner, it should be
submitted in writing at least 60 days before that date. |
