Applications processed by Public Notice CRTC 2001-18 dated 5 February 2001

 

Carriage of U.S. 4+1 signals on a discretionary digital basis

1.

The Commission approves the applications to distribute on the Class 3 cable distribution undertakings serving the communities noted above, the following services on a discretionary digital basis:

 
  • a second set of signals that provides the programming of the four U.S. commercial networks (CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX) and the non-commercial PBS network, which will be selected from the List of Part 3 eligible satellite services.

2.

These signals are generally referred to as the "U.S. 4 + 1 signals." The licensees already distribute a first set of U.S. 4+1 signals on an analog basis.

3.

The Commission has noted the comment in the intervention submitted by the Canadian Association of Broadcasters that the licensees should distribute Canadian services before duplicate U.S. signals.
