The owners received approval by the CRTC on October 2, 2013, which will replace CFRY AM's current repeater, CFRY-FM-1. The new station will broadcast using the same facility and parameters as CFRY-FM-1, with a maximum effective radiated power of 27,000 watts (non-directional antenna with an effective height of antenna above average terrain of 73.5 metres).[1]
Originally, it was planned to broadcast as CFRY-FM, while its original parent station, CFRY AM, continued its country format.[2] It was later revealed that the station would switch to a classic rock format under the new call letters of CHPO-FM, ending its 19-year FM simulcast as CFRY-1-FM.[3] However, the station instead launched as Country 93.1 FM, the current format.
