CBAM-FM
CBAM-FM (106.1 MHz) is a public, non-commercial radio station in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. It is the local Radio One station of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The studios and offices are at 165 Main Street, in a building known as Ici Acadie, along with facilities for co-owned CBA-FM, CBAF-FM, CBAFT-DT and CBAT-DT.
CBAM-FM is a Class C1 station. It has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 69,500 watts horizontal polarization and 34,300 watts vertical polarization. The transmitter tower is on Timberline Road near Whitfield Trites Road in Moncton.
CBAM-FM has a local wake-up news and interview program, "Information Morning Moncton" with Jonna Brewer from 6 to 8:30 weekdays. It shares a weekday afternoon show with other CBC Radio One stations in New Brunswick, "Shift". From Halifax, it shares a midday magazine show on weekdays, "Maritime Noon", as well as some weekend shows and newscasts.
Every November, CBAM-FM hosts a local radiothon for the Dr. Georges-L. Dumont Hospital Foundation, with proceeds going to the Tree of Hope Campaign. This radiothon airs only on CBAM-FM.
The Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission owned and operated a station in Moncton under the call sign CRCA, which had previously been CNR Radio station CNRA. The station was taken off the air in on October 31, 1933. Plans were made for the construction of a more powerful transmitter in nearby Sackville that would cover the Maritime provinces.
The CRBC was closed down in 1936 and replaced by the CBC, which inherited the project. It took another three years for the CBC to establish radio service in the area.
The new station signed on as CBA on April 8, 1939. It was a 50,000-watt Class I-B station at 1050 AM. CBA was the CBC's clear-channel outlet for the Maritime provinces, heard in the daytime over much of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island, and at night audible over much of Eastern Canada and the Northeastern United States.
As a result of the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement treaty (NARBA), it moved to 1070 AM on March 29, 1941, sharing that clear-channel frequency with Los Angeles's KNX. The original city of licence was Sackville, the location of the transmitter site. The city of licence was later changed to Moncton in 1968 when the CBA transmitter, one 460-foot (140 m) tower, moved to Dover Road in the rural community of Fox Creek near Moncton. In the 1950s and 1960s, CBA's studios were located on St. George Street in Moncton.
