History

The station began broadcasting at 1270 kHz in January 1979, at a power of 1000 watts, to service Trenton; hence the "TN" in the call sign.[1] Ted Snider was the station's first manager. The original AM transmitter was located at Carrying Place, just south of Trenton. CJTN moved to its current frequency at 107.1 FM on August 16, 2004,[2] and was branded as Lite 107 with an adult contemporary format. The station changed to a classic rock format on May 18, 2007 and was re-branded as Rock 107, Quinte's Classic Rock.

Rock 107's weekday line-up consists of The Morning Buzz with Buzz Collins featuring Tim Durkin with news and Jack Miller with sports. Rick Kevan hosts afternoons. Special feature shows include The House of Hair with Dee Snider on Friday nights, The Acoustic Storm with Jeff Parets on Saturday mornings, Flashback with Max Pinfield on Saturday nights and Sunday mornings and weekend afternoons with Greg Moulton and Scott Hunter. In August 2019, veteran announcer Rick Kevan celebrated 40 years with Quinte Broadcasting.[3]

CJTN's FM transmitter is located near Wooler Road and Highway 401, northwest of Trenton. It's signal is directional, to avoid co-channel interference to the west with CILQ-FM.

gollark: FEAR my spare phone, which apparently can manage to run Discord.
gollark: (I *can* tell it's the display's fault since it works fine when I use this program for viewing its screen from my laptop)
gollark: It seems like a hardware problem, but I can't tell.
gollark: Excitingly, my phone has apparently decided that its display will not work any more.
