CJOT-FM is a Canadian radio station based in Ottawa, Ontario, that broadcasts a classic hits format at 99.7 FM. The station uses its on-air brand name Boom 99.7, and is owned by Corus Entertainment. CJOT's studios are located on Merivale Road in Nepean, Ontario along with sister station CKQB-FM, while its transmitter is located in Greely, in the south end of Ottawa. ==History== The station was authorized to its then-owner, Astral Media, by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) on August 26, 2008〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2008-222 )〕 and launched on May 27, 2010 with an adult contemporary format branded as ''99.7 EZ Rock''.〔("FM 99.7 in Ottawa now testing" ). ''Digital Homes'', April 23, 2010.〕 The first song on "EZ Rock" was "Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Bublé. Upon the launch of CJOT, it became the new flagship station of the EZ Rock brand in Canada, about five months after the sign-off of Toronto's CJEZ-FM (now adult hits-formatted CHBM-FM, "boom 97.3"). However, on June 30, 2011, the station flipped to a classic hits format, branded as ''boom 99.7''.〔(EZ Rock rebrands as boom 99.7 )〕 The last song on "EZ Rock" was ''Forget You'' by Cee-Lo Green, while "boom's" first song was ''Start Me Up'' by Rolling Stones. The station's playlist focuses on songs from 1964-1999. In March 2013, as part of Bell Canada's proposed acquisition of Astral Media, Corus reached a tentative deal to acquire Astral's 50% stake in the Teletoon networks, along with several radio stations (including CJOT), for $400.6 million.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-investor/bce-to-sell-assets-to-corus-as-part-of-astral-deal/article9272784/?cmpid=rss1 )〕 On January 28, 2014, the CRTC approved Corus's acquisition of CJOT-FM and sister station, CKQB-FM. The acquisition was closed on January 31, 2014. 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「CJOT-FM」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
