History of 104.5 Fresh Radio
The station signed on-air for the first time in 1957 with the call sign CKSF FM. Initially, it was launched by the city’s daily newspaper, the Cornwall Standard-Freeholder. It also owned AM sister station CKSF. Stanley Shankman bought the stations after two years, and both changed their call signs to CJSS as well. Shenkman sold his broadcast holdings, the local Émard family purchased the radio channel, and Ottawa’s CJOH-TV acquired the TV station.
In 1978, Tri-Co Broadcasting purchased its broadcasting held and adopted its current call sign. Initially, it transmits beautiful music format and then moves to AC format. In 2001, Corus Entertainment owned the station and was branded as Variety 104. CFLG changed its branding name to 104.5 Fresh FM on August 25, 2014, at 11 AM. The first song was “Hideaway” by Kiesza on Fresh. It again rebranded as 104.5 Fresh Radio on February 13, 2015, to reflect all other Corus Radio-owned “Fresh FM” stations.
