CJPR-FM (94.9 MHz ) is a Canadian radio station that broadcasts a country format 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]
