CHRC-FM

CHRC-FM is a radio station serving Clarence-Rockland, Ontario, Canada, which broadcasts a country music format on 92.5 MHz. The station is owned by Evanov Radio Group through licensee Dufferin Communications Inc. The station is branded as "Hot Country 92.5".
The station, which broadcast non-directionally at 300 watts, may cause interference problems in some areas between it and a co-channel station in Montreal, also 92.5, CKBE-FM. These interference problems were addressed in the station's application with the CRTC, which approved the application on February 25, 2013.
In June 2013, the station was assigned the call letters CHRC-FM. The call sign was previously used by a now-defunct radio station in Quebec City.
