Apple FM could be coming to Meaford

On September 12, we’ll learn whether Meaford has its own radio station. A Toronto communications company has applied to the CRTC to launch easy listening Apple FM at 99.3 FM.

For small-town residents, Meaford folks have a lot of options when it comes to local radio, including Owen Sound’s Bayshore Broadcasting (owned by a proud Meaford resident), which operates two FM stations and one AM station in Owen Sound (along with stations in other regional communities). But Evanov Radio Group suggests the new station would be very Meaford-centric, reports The Meaford Independent. “[It will] deliver bundles of local spoken word content specifically focusing on events and news that is relevant to residents of Meaford including community updates, recreation reports, traffic, sports, weather, news coverage and everything one may need to take advantage of the area’s massive apple harvest,” Carmela Laurignano, VP and Radio Group Manager for Evanov, told TMI. (That apple harvest reference has us scratching our heads a bit.) 50 percent of the news coverage will be local, according to the CRTC application.

Evanov Radio Group’s radio outlets include stations in Brantford, Hawkesbury, Toronto, Ottawa, Winnipeg, and Halifax.

So, stay “tuned” to hear the news.
