CINA-FM (102.3 MHz) is a radio station broadcasting a mixture of English-language and ethnic/multilingual music and programming in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.
The station broadcasts with an antenna aimed toward the northwest and southeast, to protect nearby stations on the same frequency: CHST-FM in London; WGRT in Port Huron, Michigan; WPOS-FM in Toledo, Ohio and WFXN-FM in Galion, Ohio. In consequence, the coverage area reaches out to ethnic communities in both Windsor and Detroit, Michigan.
In 2008, Neeti P. Ray, on behalf of a corporation to be incorporated, received approval in part from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to operate a new ethnic FM radio station (CJNR-FM) to serve Windsor at 95.9 MHz. [1] However, the 95.9 MHz frequency was awarded to Blackburn Radio's CJWF-FM which launched in November 2009.
In 2009, the Commission approved the application by the CBC to convert CBC Radio One outlet CBE from 1550 kHz to 97.5 MHz, [2] making their plans to install a nested transmitter at 102.3 [3] obsolete. As a result, the 102.3 MHz frequency became available by September 2011.
On December 13, 2011, Ray filed an application to allow CJNR-FM to operate at 102.3 MHz; this was approved on March 2, 2012. [4]
The station launched on September 6, 2012, having changed its callsign to CINA-FM (after Mississauga/Toronto sister station CINA AM).
CINA FM's airs programming in a variety of language including: Arabic, Assyrian, Cantonese, German, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Macedonian, Romanian, Serbian, Spanish and Ukrainian. 80% of the daily programming is in Arabic.
