I already recieved information from another source. That industry canada's media relation's department said ....
" This matter is now under consideration and thus the Department is not in a position at this time to comment on the next steps or potential outcomes. ", Michel Cimpaye , Industry Canada.
So, stay tuned Ottawa members, there may be something going on regarding the station next week. It looks like they already didnot comply with the cease and desisit order, already issued from IC.
Could this be a confiscation? are those the next steps? fines? Have to wait and see
Anyone in ottawa on rr here , can tell us if this station is currently still playing over the FM band
According to CBC, some listeners can hear the station 20 kms away from the city. They must be putting an impressive illegal signal out, wow.
Not to burst your bubble hits fm, if he is getting 20kms out of the city, and people can hear, him, i think he is putting out more then the industry canada legal requirements for a Low power Signal. He would have to be pushing 500 watts or more ERP
500 watts doesnt comform to lowpower. Not only that, he's is practically right next to YOW (ottawa international airport). On a direct flight path.
