1CFDR had previously been licensed to move to 88.9 FM, however the subsequent purchase of CKUL by parent company Newcap Broadcasting made this conversion impossible due to concentration of media ownership rules. Sale to Rogers Communications was approved by the CRTC on November 24, 2008, and the station has moved to FM 92.9 and started up August 7, 2009 at 12:00 pm AST. CFDR's format is changed to "LITE 92.9" soft adult contemporary.
Canwest had been licensed to launch an FM station at 105.1 MHz (to be CHAL-FM, "The Breeze" adult contemporary) in November 2004. The station did not launch, and Canwest's authority to launch the station has now expired. Evanov, the owners of Z103.5 are applied to start a radio station at the 105.1 MHz frequency. It was approved on October 7, 2009 and is adopting a Modern Rock format.

Famous quotes containing the word radio:
“There was a girl who was running the traffic desk, and there was a woman who was on the overnight for radio as a producer, and my desk assistant was a woman. So when the world came to an end, we took over.”
—Marya McLaughlin, U.S. television newswoman. As quoted in Women in Television News, ch. 3, by Judith S. Gelfman (1976)
“Having a thirteen-year-old in the family is like having a general-admission ticket to the movies, radio and TV. You get to understand that the glittering new arts of our civilization are directed to the teen-agers, and by their suffrage they stand or fall.”
—Max Lerner (b. 1902)
“England has the most sordid literary scene Ive ever seen. They all meet in the same pub. This guys writing a foreword for this person. They all have to give radio programs, they have to do all this just in order to scrape by. Theyre all scratching each others backs.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
