 Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2005-596
CHCD stated that it is not opposed to Bel-Roc providing a service to Haldimand County, but that it is opposed to Bel-Roc providing a radio service that would be competitive in Norfolk County, the area that CHCD-FM is authorized to serve.
CHCD contended that Bel-Roc’s original application to use 106.7 MHz was aimed at capturing listeners from the many Haldimand County residents who commute daily to Hamilton, and thus at generating a significant portion of its advertising revenues from the Hamilton radio market.
They contended that, if this application were approved, the number of people within the Haldimand County radio station’s 0.5 mV/m contour would increase from 218,300, as proposed in the original application, to 588,718, and that the increase would come primarily from the Hamilton area.
