CKNR-FM is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts an adult contemporary format at FM 94.1 in Elliot Lake, Ontario. The station uses the on-air brand Moose FM. ==History== The station first aired in 1967 at AM 1340, and was owned by Algonquin Broadcasting. CKNR had two sister stations, AM 930 CKNS in Espanola (established in 1976) and AM 730 CJNR in Blind River (actually the oldest of the three, first established in 1958.) Huron Broadcasting acquired the stations in 1976. In 1986, CJNR and CKNS were given approval to amend their broadcasting licences, by deleting the condition of licence which required these stations to operate as affiliates of the CBC's English-language AM radio network.〔(Decision CRTC 86-205 )〕 All three stations became part of Mid-Canada Radio in 1986,〔(Decision CRTC 85-146 )〕 and were subsequently sold to the Pelmorex Radio Network in 1990.〔(Decision CRTC 90-676 )〕 On November 15, 1990, CKNR was given permission to disaffiliate from the CBC as the Elliot Lake area was now served by the Corporation’s CBEC-FM.〔(Decision CRTC 90-1111 )〕 North Channel Broadcasting acquired the stations from Pelmorex in 1996, and converted CKNR to FM 94.1 MHz on March 3, 1997 with a transmitter on Manitoulin Island.〔(CRTC decision 1996-396 )〕 Due to the station's signal strength (it can be heard as far as Sudbury and into Michigan's eastern Upper Peninsula), the CJNR and CKNS signals were both discontinued. North Channel subsequently sold CKNR to Haliburton Broadcasting Group in 2004, a sale which reunited CKNR with many of its former sister stations in the Pelmorex Radio Network.〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2004-114 )〕 On April 23, 2012 Vista Broadcast Group, which owns a number of radio stations in western Canada, announced a deal to acquire Haliburton Broadcasting, in cooperation with Westerkirk Capital.〔("Westerkirk Capital Acquires Vista and Haliburton Broadcast Groups" ). ''Broadcaster'', April 26, 2012.〕 The transaction was approved by the CRTC on October 19, 2012.〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2012-577 ) Various radio programming undertakings – Acquisition of assets, ''CRTC'', October 19, 2012〕 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「CKNR-FM」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
