History
On May 9, 2012, Hector Broadcasting Company received a licence from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to operate a new English language FM radio station in New Glasgow/Pictou County.[1] The station began broadcasting on September 15, 2014, as Classic Rock 97.9. In November 2017, it was announced that pending approval by the CRTC, this station and its sister CKEC-FM were to be purchased by Newcap Radio.[2] and was included in the sale of Newcap stations to Stingray Music.
