CJPR-FM is a Canadian radio station that broadcasts a country format at 94.9 FM under its on-air branding as Real Country 94.9 in Blairmore, Alberta. The station was owned & operated by Newcap Radio until they were bought out by Stingray Digital.
CJPR originally began broadcasting at 1490 AM in 1972, until it moved to 94.9 FM in 2002.[1]
On May 16, 2008, CJPR applied to the CRTC to add a transmitter at Pincher Creek, Alberta.[2] The station was given approval on July 28, 2008 to operate a rebroadcaster in Pincher Creek at 92.7 FM (CJPV-FM).[3]
In November 2016, CJPR rebranded under the Real Country brand, as with other Newcap-owned country stations in Alberta.[4]
