**CFAP-DT** (channel 2) is a [television station](/source/Television_station) in [Quebec City](/source/Quebec_City), Quebec, Canada, airing programming from the French-language network [Noovo](/source/Noovo). [Owned and operated](/source/Owned_and_operated) by [Bell Media](/source/Bell_Media), the station maintains studios on the corner of Rue d'Youville and Rue Saint-Joachim (co-located with sister stations [CHIK-FM](/source/CHIK-FM) and [CITF-FM](/source/CITF-FM)) in the Quebec City borough of [La Cité-Limoilou](/source/La_Cit%C3%A9-Limoilou), and its transmitter is located at [Édifice Marie-Guyart](/source/%C3%89difice_Marie-Guyart), in downtown Quebec City.

## History

The station signed on along with sister station [CFJP-TV](/source/CFJP-TV) in [Montreal](/source/Montreal) in 1986[3] as part of what was then the TQS network. It was owned by the family of [Jean Pouliot](/source/Jean_Pouliot), then-owner of [CFCF-TV](/source/CFCF-TV). The A in the callsign stands for Adélard, Pouliot's middle name.

Originally a full [satellite](/source/Broadcast_relay_station#Satellite_stations) of CFJP, it began airing its own programming on September 3, 1989. However, like all other TQS/V/Noovo stations, it was (and still is) largely a [semi-satellite](/source/Semi-satellite) of CFJP. As an owned-and-operated station of the network, CFAP was part of the takeover of TQS by Remstar Corporation.

## Digital television

CFAP-DT ceased broadcasting in analog on August 17, 2011, and signed on to digital on August 27, 2011, on [UHF](/source/UHF) channel 39, using [virtual channel](/source/Virtual_channel) 2.
