Decision CRTC 95-145

Power Broadcasting Inc.
Kingston, Ontario - 941246100

Licence amendment for CFMK-FM

Following Public Notice CRTC 1994-158 dated 22 December 1994, the Commission approves the application to amend the broadcasting licence for CFMK-FM Kingston, by adding a condition of licence, pursuant to Section 14 of the Radio Regulations 1986, authorizing the licensee to simulcast local newscasts of CFFX on its sister station CFMK-FM at 6.00 a.m., 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m., Monday to Friday. The proposed newscasts are 10 minutes each, for a maximum weekly simulcast of 21/2 hours.

In assessing this application, the Commission has taken into account the negative financial situation of both stations, the fact that the proposed simulcasting is for a limited time period over the broadcast week and that the licensee will continue to provide separate local newscasts on each station during the remainder of the broadcast week.

The Commission acknowledges the opposing intervention and is satisfied that the licensee has adequately addressed the concerns raised therein.

Allan J. Darling
Secretary General
