Application No. 2007-0363-8
|
|
|
Application by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) to amend the licence of the English-language radio programming undertaking CBCV-FM Victoria.
|
|
|
The licensee proposes to add an FM transmitter atNanaimo to broadcast its programming service Radio One originating from CBCV-FM Victoria, in order to adequately serve the population of Nanaimo.
|
|
|
The transmitter would operate on frequency 104.1 MHz (channel 281B1) with an average effective radiated power of 3,000 watts (maximum effective radiated power of 7,000 watts/antenna height of 183.7 metres).
|
|
|
The CBC advises that the transmitter is intended to not only improve its Radio One service to Nanaimo but also to provide programming originating from Vancouver Island instead of Vancouver. It also indicates that although Nanaimo is theoretically covered by its AM station CBU out of Vancouver, the signal in and around the community is marginal and suffers intermittent degradation during both day and night.
|
|
|
The Commission originally Gazetted this application as item 7 in Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2007-31, 26 March 2007.

Fraser Valley, British Columbia and Winnipeg, Manitoba
Application No. 2007-1622-7
|
|
|
Application by Faith & Spirit Media Inc. (Faith), in its capacity as Trustee of the S-Vox Trust, on behalf of a corporation to be incorporated (S-Vox), to acquire from Rogers Broadcasting Limited (Rogers) the assets of the two religious television stations CHNU-TV and CIIT-TV, serving Vancouver, Victoria, Fraser Valley and Winnipeg, respectively.
|
|
|
Faith is requesting to be relieved from paying new tangible benefits due to the nature of the transaction. Faith is also requesting to be relieved of the $350,000 commitment made by Rogers, as a benefit related to the application to add a transmitter of CHNU-TV in Victoria. Faith has committed to fulfill the $1.5 million outstanding tangible benefits associated with these two stations listed in Appendix 2 of Decision CRTC 2005-207.
|
|
|
Faith is also requesting relief from certain conditions of the broadcasting licences. Faith argued that while previously deemed appropriate to Rogers' specific circumstances, the conditions of licence are no longer necessary or appropriate under S-VOX ownership and are inequitable compared to the obligations imposed on other religious broadcasters.
