On April 12, 1985, the CRTC approved an application by the CBC to amend the broadcasting licences for CBXH, CBDA and CBKI by changing the frequencies from 1450 to 1540; 1240 to 1560; and 1450 to 1350.{{cite web|url=http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/1985/DB85-186.HTM|title=Decision CRTC 85-186|date=April 12, 1985|publisher=CRTC|access-date=October 27, 2017}} These AM transmitters were eventually converted to FM or shutdown.

  • On August 16, 2013, CBTK-FM applied to relocate CBRJ 860 to 107.3 MHz.{{cite web|url=https://services.crtc.gc.ca/pub/DocWebBroker/OpenDocument.aspx?AppNo=201311589|title=2013-1158-9|publisher=CRTC|access-date=October 27, 2017}} This application was approved on October 31, 2013.{{cite web|url=http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2013/2013-577.htm|title=Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2013-577|date=October 31, 2013|publisher=CRTC|access-date=October 27, 2017}}

Radio One programming in these communities are available from adjacent transmitters CBUQ-FM and CBXE-FM, the closest Radio One transmitters to Parson and Donald.

=Split of CBYK-FM into separate network=

{{main|CBYK-FM}}

CBTK-FM was previously repeated on CBYK-FM Kamloops and on 22 CBC radio repeaters in the Thompson and Cariboo regions. On October 28, 2011, the CBC filed an application with the CRTC to convert CBYK-FM to an anchor of a new regional CBC Radio One network. The CRTC approved the new regional network on March 30, 2012,{{cite web|url=http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2012/2012-187.htm|title=Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2012-187|date=March 30, 2012|publisher=CRTC|access-date=October 27, 2017}} with a start-up date slated for October 9, 2012.{{cite web|url=http://www.cbc.ca/kamloops/mt/2012/09/daybreak-kamloops-with-shelley-joyce.html|title=CBC: "Countdown to CBC Kamloops"|author=Jonathan DeRouchie|date=September 10, 2012|publisher=CBC|access-date=October 27, 2017}}{{cite web|url=http://www.kamloopsnews.ca/article/20120906/KAMLOOPS0101/120909928/-1/kamloops01/launch-date-for-cbc-kamloops-coming-monday|title=Kamloops Daily News: "Launch date for CBC Kamloops coming Monday|author=JASON HEWLETT|date=September 6, 2012|publisher=KAMLOOPS DAILY NEWS|access-date=October 27, 2017}}

CBUC-FM, which was originally to have been part of the new network, will remain a repeater of CBTK-FM, following interventions from various parties, including the City of Salmon Arm, that the region is more economically tied with the Okanagan region than with Kamloops.

Shortly after CBYK-FM's launch as a separate station, residents of Revelstoke complained to the CRTC that they were not consulted by the CBC when they switched their local repeater, CBTO-FM 91.3, to CBYK-FM's programming; e-mails made to the city's mayor's office show that 80% of listeners prefer programming from Kelowna, while only 20% prefer the new Kamloops programming. The CRTC later said that it is up to the CBC to decide which programming originates for CBTO-FM, not the CRTC. After city officials contacted the CBC, BC spokesperson Lorna Haeber said that the CBC would make a decision on the issue "shortly", but failed to elaborate how or when the decision will be made.{{cite web|url=http://www.revelstoketimesreview.com/news/209206461.html|title=CBC Kamloops vs. Kelowna issue drags into sixth month|author=AARON ORLANDO|date=May 28, 2013|publisher=Revelstoke Review|access-date=October 27, 2017|archive-date=October 12, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131012031341/http://www.revelstoketimesreview.com/news/209206461.html|url-status=dead}} The CRTC subsequently issued a notice that it had approved an application by the CBC to change the local programming source of its Radio One transmitter in Revelstoke from Kamloops back to Kelowna.{{cite web|url=http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2013/2013-675.htm|title=Decision 2013-675|date=December 11, 2013|publisher=CRTC|access-date=October 27, 2013}} The change was implemented on January 2, 2014.{{cite web|url=http://www.revelstoketimesreview.com/news/235667821.html|title=CBC Radio Kelowna programs return to Revelstoke Jan. 2|author=AARON ORLANDO|date=December 12, 2013|publisher=Revelstoke Review|access-date=October 27, 2017|archive-date=December 16, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131216190615/http://www.revelstoketimesreview.com/news/235667821.html|url-status=dead}}
