List of former rebroadcasters of CBWT-DT
This is a list of former CBWT-TV transmitters that were used by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to expand the coverage area of a station to include remote rural areas throughout the Canadian province of Manitoba, plus areas of northwest Ontario’s Central Time Zone segment, and a few northeast Saskatchewan communities. These transmitters served as rebroadcasters of CBWT’s main signal that originates from Winnipeg. Due to budget cuts, the CBC decommissioned these transmitters, along with its other 600+ over-the-air analogue television transmission network on July 31, 2012.[1][2][3][4][5]
CBWT was rebroadcast on a total of 46 rebroadcasters in Manitoba, northwest Ontario, and remote areas of northeastern Saskatchwan.
