homepage =CFVO-TV is a defunct
television station that broadcasted fromHull, Quebec . It was the immediate predecessor to today'sCHOT-TV , and launched onSeptember 1 ,1974 under the ownership of a company known as "La Coopérative de Télévision de l'Outaouais". CFVO transmitted on channel 30, broadcasting mostly TVA network programming with various local shows.Unfortunately, the station lost a lot of money in its venture and, as a result, CFVO went
bankrupt and left the air onMarch 30 ,1977 . SRC stationCBOFT picked up a secondary affiliation with TVA until CHOT-TV went on the air in 1978.The channel 30 position has since been occupied by local
Télé-Québec station CIVO-TV. Until that station signed on, that channel position was dark for a period of time, making CFVO the first, and, so far, only television station in Canadian history to have actually gone dark. All other defunct stations in Canada became repeaters of other stations almost seamlessly.
