On March 12, 2013, the CRTC approved CFAR's application to convert to the FM band at 102.9 MHz, with an effective radiated power of 600 watts, non-directional antenna with an effective HAAT of 27.7 metres. The applicant also requested permission to maintain its AM transmitter as a repeater at the current specifications in order to rebroadcast the new FM station’s programming, which was granted.〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2013-118 ), CFAR Flin Flon – Conversion to the FM band, ''CRTC'', March 12, 2013〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「CFAR (AM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
