CJRI-FM is a Canadian radio station in Fredericton, New Brunswick, broadcasting on 104.5 MHz. The station broadcasts a gospel music format and is owned by long-time local broadcaster Ross Ingram.

History

The station has been on the air since May 18, 2005, originally on 94.7 FM.[1]

Due to interference from WBCQ-FM, a new FM radio station which launched in Monticello, Maine in September 2008, the station applied to the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission for a frequency change to 104.5. This application was approved on November 27, 2008.[2]

Rebroadcasters

On December 1, 2008 the CRTC also granted the station's application to add rebroadcasters at Woodstock (101.1 MHz), New Bandon (99.7 MHz) and St. Stephen (99.9 MHz) All three transmitters will operate with an effective radiated power of 50 watts.[3]
