History

The station began broadcasting in 1958 as CJDV, until it changed to its current callsign in 1981. It is a Class B station broadcasting with a power of 50,000 watts, and using a two tower directional antenna daytime and a four tower directional antenna nighttime. The former CJDV callsign now belongs to a radio station in Cambridge, Ontario.

In 2016, the station became a semi-satellite of Camrose/Edmonton sister station CFCW, rebranding from Q91 to 910 CFCW; it carried a mix of CFCW and local programming. In October 2018, CKDQ rebranded as Real Country 910 (adopting a brand used by other Newcap-owned country stations in Alberta).[1]

gollark: But I think you could say that lots of things which kill you just work by reducing the amount of something or other in your body.
gollark: Well, that's the mechanism apparently, but the effect is that if you drink too much water you die.
