Ici Musique Ottawa (CBOX 102.5 FM) is an Ici Musique radio launched on Set 12, 1974 as CBOF-FM and owned by CBC Espace Musique. The commission allowed the Francophone musique station to increase ERP to 84,000 w on April 18, 1984. The calls got changed to CBOX-FM and became stereo when the sister CBOF-AM 1250 changed its band to FM in 1991. In 2001 upon the license update with no rebroadcasters, the radio was producing at least 20 minutes of local arts programs each week in addition to the other content broadcasted by network. Three transmitters were allowed by CRTC under transitional digital radio license; they will be installed at Camp Fortune, QC and other two in Ottawa. The first digital radio COBX-DR-1 singed on air on March 11, 2003.
