Edmonton, Alberta
Application No. 2007-0965-2
|
|
|
Application by CanWest MediaWorks Inc. (CanWest) relating to the licence of the television programming undertaking CHCA-TV Red Deer, Alberta.
|
|
|
CanWest proposes to operate the transmitter CHCA-TV-2 Edmonton, Alberta on a temporary basis with an average effective radiated power of 7,500 watts (maximum effective radiated power of 12,000 watts/effective antenna height 22.5 metres) at an alternate transmitter location.
|
|
|
This transmitter was initially approved in Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2007-168, 8 June 2007, (Decision 2007-168) CHCA-TV Red Deer - New Transmitters in Calgary and Edmonton, wherein the Commission approved the application by CanWest to operate a TV transmitter in Edmonton on channel 17C with an effective radiated power of 92,000 watts.
|
|
|
CanWest advises that due to recent uncertainty caused by announced and/or approved ownership transactions, access to the tower originally approved has proven to be problematic. It states that in the meanwhile, it will continue to negotiate diligently and that the request for the temporary operation is for a period not to exceed one year from the date of Decision 2007-168, approving the new transmitter.
