History

The radio station originally began broadcasting at 1370 kHz on the AM dial in 1937.[1]

In 1941, CFAR changed its frequency from to 1400 kHz.

In 1944, CFAR changed its frequency from to 1230 kHz.

In 1946, CFAR changed its frequency from to its last AM frequency 590 kHz.

Over the years, CFAR went through different ownerships and formats.

On March 12, 2013, the CRTC approved CFAR's application to convert to the FM band at 102.9 MHz, with an effective radiated power of 600 watts, non-directional antenna with an effective HAAT of 27.7 metres. The applicant also requested permission to maintain its AM transmitter as a repeater at the current specifications in order to rebroadcast the new FM station's programming, which was granted.[2]
