|
Application (200001917) by GOLDEN WEST BROADCASTING LTD., P.O. Box 950, Centre Avenue, Altona, Manitoba, R0G 0B0. |
|
Golden West was granted a licence to operate a new FM radio station at Moose Jaw in Decision CRTC 99-473. That licence was subject to conditions related to the station’s musical format that is, that the station be operated in the Specialty format, and the station broadcast a minimum of 33% from music categories other than category 21 (Pop, Rock and Dance) and 22 (Country and Country-oriented) within its overall music programming. |
|
|
The licensee seeks the deletion of the conditions of licence related to operation in the Specialty format, and the replacement of them with the following new condition of licence: |
|
|
1. The licensee shall not operate the station within the Specialty format as defined in Public Notice CRTC 1995-60, or as amended from time to time. |
|
|
If the application is approved, the station would be free to broadcast any mix of music, so long as at least 70% is drawn from the Pop, Rock and Dance and/or Country categories. |

Golden West was granted a licence to operate a new FM radio station at Winkler in Decision CRTC 99-472. Under the terms of its licence, the station was free to broadcast any music, so long as at least 70% was Pop, Rock and Dance and/or Country. |
|

The licensee seeks authority to operate the new station in the Specialty format, meaning any mix of music, where less than 70% is Pop, Rock and Dance and/or Country. Golden West also specified that at least one-third of the music will be from other than those generally popular categories. |
