The One 93.1 FM - Leduc's Best Country
In October 2006, Blackgold Broadcasting started the research and began the process to compose and write the Formal Application to the CRTC to serve the City of Leduc and Leduc County with its first originating FM Radio station. After a 2 year waiting period on May 2nd, 2011, Blackgold Broadcasting re-filed a new application with a new technical brief with the CRTC.
The paperwork included a formal application form, a supplementary brief outlining our format, business plan and vision for the station, financial and corporate details and technical data which was also filed with Industry Canada for approval to operate on the FM frequency of the City of Leduc and Leduc County.
Here is the history and timelines:
