From CJam's site:
"CJAM is currently applying for an amendment to our broadcasting undertaking to assume a new signal at 99.1 FM. While CJAM has been broadcasting at about 1000 watts for over 10 years, the station was never granted "Protected Status" from the CRTC, thanks to pressures from the FCC who were concerned with CJAM's level of interference with adjacent American stations. Without "protected status", CJAM faces the risk of losing its signal to other applicants. In fact, CJAM faced that very risk recently when CBC decided to apply for 91.5 in the fall of 2008. The CBC ultimately withdrew its application, but CJAM still faces possible removal from the FM band thanks to a pending application for our signal.
CJAM has identified a new signal- 99.1 FM- that could afford the station protected status and has moved forward with applications for this new signal to Industry Canada and the CRTC. The application has received "Technical Acceptability" from Industry Canada and is now before the CRTC"
If you have any questions or concerns please contact station manager Adam Fox directly at 519-253-3000 ex. 2525 or by email at statcjam@uwindsor.ca
