 Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2004-161
Great Valleys Radio Ltd. (Great Valleys), the licensee of CIGV-FM Penticton, opposed the application on the grounds that the proposed contours would encompass Penticton and its surrounding area, thereby creating a fourth station in that small market.
Great Valleys argued that the application represented a clear threat to the listener base, revenue stream and quality of CIGV-FM, which already competes with two Penticton radio undertakings, CKOR and CJMG-FM, owned by Standard.
Great Valleys contended that Standard should replace CHOR with a low-power FM undertaking in Summerland that would serve the Summerland population without a negative impact on broadcasters serving neighbouring markets.

However, the DAB transmitter network is still under construction, offering 85% coverage of BBC national radio by the end of 2004, as opposed to 98% coverage on FM.
Car radios automatically switch to mono as the signal strength degrades and also filter out the higher frequency parts of the audio to reduce hiss.
RDS car radios may not re-tune where mulipath is encountered as the signal strength may remain high, even though the sound is poor.

Silk FM indicated that, at such time as the two markets are able to support additional commercial radio stations, it planned to "offer a locally-programmed, commercial service on the proposed repeaters".
Great Valleys agreed with this position, stating that, as the licensee of an independent radio station in Penticton, any fragmentation of audience would have a "negative impact on its ability to solicit and retain national, regional and local advertisers".
The applicant further stated that it would expect to attract no more than 3% of each local radio station’s existing audience, and that most of its projected audience would be repatriated from out of market radio stations.

Listening to radio and watching TV and films, public performances, lectures, religious services, etc., generally reflect non-interactive listening.
