The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commissions gave the thumbs-up to five proposals for new radio stations in Alberta, four in Calgary and three of which were conditional. Harvard Broadcasting got the OK for a new Alternative station at 92.9 FM in Calgary, and Rawlco was approved for a Folk/Acoustic specialty station at 100.3 FM, also in Calgary. Newcap was granted a partial approval; it had proposed a Triple A station at 92.9 in Calgary but was given the OK to put its station on at 90.3 FM. Also getting a conditional approval was CHUM, which proposed a Hot AC station at 90.3 FM in Calgary and was granted the format but needs to resubmit its application for another frequency. Meanwhile, Tiessen Media received half-approval: The company asked to be able to put an Eclectic AC station on two signals -- at 106.1 in Airdrie and 99.1 in Cochrane; the Airdrie stick was approved, the Cochrane was not, and Tiessen must resubmit with another frequency in mind.
