CHYM-FM
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CHYM is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts at 96.7 FM in Kitchener, Ontario. The station airs an adult contemporary format under the brand CHYM FM.
The station was originally launched in 1929 as AM 645 CKCR. The station's frequency moved to 1510 in 1934. In 1949, FM sister station CKCR-FM was launched.
In 1965, the stations were acquired by Great Lakes Broadcasting, a consortium that included Maclean-Hunter. Both stations changed their callsigns to CHYM that year. In 1972, the FM outlet's callsign was changed again, to CKGL.
In 1982, Maclean-Hunter took over full ownership of the stations.
CHYM and CKGL swapped frequencies in 1992, with CHYM moving to the FM band. The stations became part of Rogers Communications in 1994 when that company acquired Maclean-Hunter.
Today, CHYM FM is the most listened to radio station in Kitchener with the very popular George and Tara morning show.
