CIPC-FM is a french language contemporary hit radio station that operates at 99.1 FM. Licensed to Port-Cartier, Quebec, Canada, it serves the Sept-Îles area. The station is owned by Radio Port-Cartier Inc.
The station originally began broadcasting in 1976 on the AM dial at 710Khz, until it received CRTC approval in 1993 to move to its current FM frequency.[1]
The station is authorised to broadcast at a maximum ERP (effective radiated power) of 45,016 watts; on June 8, 2010, the CRTC denied CIPC-FM's application to increase their maximum ERP to 100,000 watts, following opposition from competing stations CKCN-FM in Sept-Îles and CHLC-FM in Baie-Comeau.[2]
