CJRM-FM

CJRM-FM is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 97.3 FM in Labrador City. It is a Francophone community radio station branded as Rafale FM.

On July 21, 2009, Radio communautaire du Labrador Inc. applied to add rebroadcasterrs in La Grand'Terre (on 96.1 FM CKIP) and St. John's (on 95.7 FM CKIJ). The CRTC approved the applications on September 14, 2009. The St. John's transmitter is reported to have launched in April 2011.

The station is currently the only broadcasting service in the province that originates locally oriented programming for the Franco-Newfoundlander community. Radio-Canada's Première Chaîne has four transmitters in the province, including Labrador City, St. John's and the Port au Port area, and Espace musique has a transmitter in St. John's, although those services rebroadcast stations from other provinces and do not originate any programming in Newfoundland and Labrador.

On November 22, 2012, Radio communautaire du Labrador received CRTC approval to change the authorized contours of CKIP-FM La Grand’Terre, by increasing the transmitter’s average ERP from 42 to 142 watts (maximum ERP of 250 to 632 watts) and to decrease the EHAAT from -17.6 to -37.6 metres.

CJRM-FM (defunct)

CJRM-FM was a French-language Canadian radio station located in Montreal, Quebec. It opened on September 30, 1965 and closed on June 24, 1968 due to financial difficulties.

The station broadcast on 98.5 MHz with an effective radiated power of 100,000 watts using an omnidirectional antenna ( class C1). It had a classical music format.

Licensed as one of the first standalone FM stations in Canada, the station's budget was so tight that it had only four employees (which was unusual at the time for a radio station), and it relied entirely on newspapers as a source for news bulletins. The station was plagued with serious technical and financial difficulties; listeners received the station with indifference.

One consequence of the failure of CJRM-FM to succeed with its classical music format was that the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) rejected for decades new applications to open a private classical music station in Montreal. When the CRTC finally gave Jean-Pierre Coallier permission to open CJPX-FM in 1997, that station would turn out to be a success.

The 98.5 MHz frequency was reactivated in the Montreal area on April 9, 1977, when CIEL-FM (now CHMP-FM) went on the air.
