:''For CFCW's FM sister station, see CFCW-FM.'' CFCW is a radio station in Camrose, Alberta, Canada, broadcasting at 840 AM. The station is owned by Newcap Broadcasting. CFCW also has studios in the NewCap Broadcast Centre in West Edmonton Mall. CFCW airs a "traditional country music" format with a mix of classic and contemporary country hits, with obligatory Canadian content pieces. CFCW is currently ranked #6 and the 3rd most listened-to AM station in the market according to the Fall 2014 Numeris data report.〔(Fall 2014 Edmonton Numeris Ratings )〕 Most of the stations listeners live in rural areas outside of Edmonton. ==History== *CFCW started on November 2, 1954 on 1230 kHz, with 250 watts power. *In 1958, the station increased transmitter power up to 1,000 watts. *In 1961, the station changed frequencies to 790 kHz, with 10,000 watts power. *In 1976, the station increased transmitter power again to 50,000 watts, serving the Edmonton area as well. *In 2005, CFCW-FM signed on. *On August 1, 2015, CFCW moved from 790 AM to 840 AM. On July 28, 2008, Newcap applied to amend the licence by changing its frequency from 790 kHz to 840 kHz.〔(Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2008-69 )〕 The application was approved;〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2008-310 )〕 however, the move was essentially voided when the station then at 830 kHz in Wainwright, Alberta was denied permission to move to FM.〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2008-343 )〕 The Wainwright station ultimately re-applied for—and got—permission to move to FM;〔()〕 as a result, in spring 2015, CFCW began advertising a pending move to the 840 frequency. On August 1, 2015, CFCW officially moved from 790 AM to 840 AM with nighttime power reduced to 40,000 kW to protect the cross-continent clear-channel service of WHAS, in Louisville, KY. 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「CFCW (AM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
