Decision CRTC 87-331 At the hearing, CFPL Broadcasting Limited stated that CFPL-TV had broadcast 40 hours of locallyproduced specials between September 1985 and August 1986, of which nine hours were aired in the evening broadcast period, and made a commitment to continue this level through the rest of the licence term.

"Superpower" Grandfathered FM's Such a "dual-stick" operation is legal in Canada, primarily in lightly populated areas where a second choice in over-the-air TV would be unlikely to exist if it had to compete with the existing station. The zone boundaries are roughly similar for TV and FM, except that there is no lower-tower zone ("Zone I-A") in California. Superpower is not quite as common there for several reasons, including that Class C stations (with a maximum of 100KW power) are authorized throughout the country. www.w9wi.com /articles/grandmor.htm   (336 words)

RTNDA ACDIRT In addition to guiding the CFPL-TV newsroom as a dominant force in the industry, there were many "firsts" under Ron's guidance. CFPL Television was one of the first stations in Canada to expand a newscast to 30 minutes, and later, to establish an hour-long evening newscast. It was also the first private station to charge advertisers a premium rate for buying time to sponsor a newscast, and the first to convert to color. www.rtndacanada.com /Content.asp?PageID=4.5.2   (242 words)

London Free Press: Today Section - PL's golden past Chris Doty's highly detailed documentary chronicles the history of the broadcasting outlet that began life as "the brainchild of an undynamic businessman named Walter J. Blackburn." The owner of the London Free Press and CFPL Radio recognized the potential of television, which was the subject of a demonstration at the 1949 Western Fair. Also profiled are the trials and tibulations facing the station under the ownership of Blackburn and his successor, daughter Martha; its uneasy affiliation with CBC; the 1992 sale of CFPL to Baton Broadcasting and its purchase by Chum Television in November, 1997. Brute Force and Ignorance, Rewind's initial segment, profiles how Blackburn was awarded a broadcast licence on the eve of April Fool's Day in 1953 and, nine months later, opened Canada's second privately owned TV station, Channel 10, built on a former farming lot in Westminster Township for the formidable cost of $110,000. www.canoe.ca /NewsStand/LondonFreePress/Today/2003/11/27/269499.html   (242 words)

CFPL-TV re News Item This disgusting display was portrayed for three evenings on both London TV (CFPL) and CTV Network. This great Canadian news coverage was in fact one of the most pornographic, dehumanizing, degrading and exploitative media coverages of women that I have seen.

Decision CRTC 89-768 In addition to CFPL-TV London, the prospective purchaser is the licensee of radio stations CFPL and CFPL-FM London. As discussed with CFPL at the hearing, and consistent with the Commission's policies reiterated in Public Notice CRTC 1989-109 of today's date, the amount of $2,750,000 cannot be accepted as a significant and unequivocal benefit of this transaction because these expenditures would be contingent upon Commission approval of future applications. Moreover, CFPL failed to convince the Commission that the efficiencies associated with a larger economic entity would, as claimed by the applicant, result in "enhanced service to viewers throughout the area and, indeed, across the country". www.crtc.gc.ca /Archive/ENG/Decisions/1989/DB89-768.htm   (928 words)
