On September 17, the CRTC approved the application by Mass-Média Capitale inc. to relocate CJNG-FM’s antenna, decrease the average ERP from 419 to 87 watts and the maximum ERP from 1,000 to 200 watts and decrease antenna height. The changes were necessary because the land and building on which CJNG had been using were recently sold and were no longer available.
