History
[edit | edit source]The station originally goes back to as early as 1975 when Radio Communautaire de l’Estrie was formed and was only available on 98.1 cable FM. [1] On June 17, 1980, Radio Communautaire de l’Estrie Inc. received approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to operate a new French-language community FM radio station at 99.7 MHz. [2] The station didn't sign on the air until October 8, 1984 after Radio Communautaire de l’Estrie received CRTC approval to change CFLX-FM's frequency from 99.7 MHz to 95.5 MHz on August 18, 1983.
