CFPS-FM
CFPS-FM is a Canadian radio station in Port Elgin, Ontario, broadcasting at 97.9 FM, with an adult contemporary format with the on-air branding 98 The Beach.
The station originally began broadcasting on the AM band at 1490 kHz on June 21, 1978. CFPS was launched by its sister station, CFOS in Owen Sound, as a semi-satellite radio station. On February 17, 2005, Bayshore Broadcasting received approval to convert CFPS from the AM band to the FM band at 97.9 MHz. The station was launched on 97.9 FM on May 20, 2005 and the old AM signal signed off the same day.
CFOS and CFPS are owned by Bayshore Broadcasting.
On December 2, 2019, Bayshore applied to add a new FM transmitter at Tobermory, Ontario to rebroadcast the programming of CFPS-FM Port Elgin. On July 23, 2020 the CRTC approved Bayshore's application to operate a new FM transmitter at 91.9 MHz in Tobermory with the call sign CFPS-FM-1. The new transmitter will also offer local programming for Tobermory with a new branding 92 The Wave. Airdate of the new FM transmitter has yet to be announced.Transmitters
