Applications (941252900, 941250300) by BBS ONTARIO INCORPORATED, 9 Channel Nine Court, Scarborough, Ontario, M1S 4B5, to amend the broadcasting licences for CFCL-TV and CITO-TV, respectively, (television) programming under- takings serving Timmins and area, by relocating the transmitter and transmitting antenna a distance of 29 km from the presently authorized location; and by increasing the effective radiated power for CITO-TV only, from 55,000 to 72,400 watts. The applicant states that the proposed changes are necessary because the existing transmission tower is aging and due for replacement.
|
|
The Commission notes that the proposed relocation of this antenna will result in an eastward displacement of the currently authorized service contours.
|
|
The Commission was informed by Industry and Science Canada in its technical comments that some communities located to the north and northwest of Timmins, within the existing Grade B contour of CFCL-TV, and to the north and southwest of Timmins, within the existing Grade B contour of CITO-TV, would no longer be served.
|
|
The applicant stated in its response that high cable penetration in the affected communities will largely compensate for the reduction of service.
