Although all other radio stations originating from Calgary do not rebroadcast their signals into Banff, they can be heard in Banff as well, depending on elevation. For example, CBR-FM, a CBC Radio 2 affiliate that broadcasts at 102.1 FM and CIBK-FM 98.5 FM. Some of Red Deer's originating FM signals can also be heard in Banff.
