Everything about Cbo-fm totally explained
CBO-FM is a
Canadian radio station. It is the
CBC Radio One station in
Ottawa, airing at 91.5
FM, and serves much of
Eastern Ontario through a network of relay transmitters.
History
CNRO was launched in
1924 as a
Canadian National Railway radio network station. It operated on AM 690 and later switched to 600. In 1933, the station was taken over by the CBC's predecessor, the
Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission and became
CRCO 880. The call sign changed to CBO in 1937 when ownership was transferred to the CBC. Later frequency changes to 910 in
1941 and to 920 in 1977 were followed by a move from the AM to the FM band at 91.5 in 1991. The call sign of the existing CBO-FM station on 103.3 (part of the
CBC Stereo network) was then changed to
CBOQ-FM. From 1924, the station's studio's were located in the towers and upper floors of the
Chateau Laurier Hotel in downtown Ottawa, a legacy of CBO origins with the Canadian National Railway which also owned the hotel. In 2004, the station left the Chateau Laurier, ending the oldest operation radio studios in Canada, and moved to the new
CBC Ottawa Broadcast Centre on Sparks Street as part of a merger of various Ottawa CBC facilities.
Local programming
The station's
local programs are
Ottawa Morning in the mornings and
All in a Day in the afternoon. However, most of the relay transmitters air
CBLA's
Ontario Morning in place of
Ottawa Morning. Unlike most CBC Radio One stations, which air provincewide morning programs on Saturdays and Sundays, the station also produces its own Saturday morning show,
In Town and Out.
In addition, CBO produces
Bandwidth, a music show which airs on all CBC Radio One stations in Ontario outside of Toronto, the regional noon news and talk program
Ontario Today, which airs on all CBC Radio One stations in Ontario including Toronto, and the national network programs
Fuse and
The House.
