Local News Every Hour, Plus Daily, Local, Call-In Talk Shows Giving You A Voice On Matters Of Local Importance, Faith & Family
Hello, I'm Andy McNabb, former owner of CKLY Radio Lindsay (click here for profile).  On Dec. 3, 2009, the CRTC approved the station's application for a new tower site.  This clears the way for the station to return to air this spring at the new tower site on Greencrest Drive in Peterborough.  We're now getting our engineers ready to roll!

To receive updates as new developments occur, send us an e-mail:  info@FM905.ca.

On June 26, 2009, the CRTC approved my purchase of Peterborough radio station CKKK (formerly known as CKKK FM a/k/a KAOS Radio). 
Read the decision here

The station now has new call letters, CJMB FM.


The station will relaunch at FM 90.5 with a new brand name and a new format.  The new brand name (to be announced this January) will reflect the station's new format focus on local news every hour, plus local talk shows based on matters of local importance, faith and family; giving Peterborough citizens a local voice.

Mission Statement For FM 90.5
Connect, inform and inspire the people of Peterborough.  

That means give them a voice.  Deliver local news every hour, plus local call-in talk shows, plus Christian faith and family talk programs. 

Rationale For FM 90.5
1.  Peterborough wants compelling, intensely local news every hour and local, call-in talk shows every day.  That connects people to each other, informs them about what's going on, establishes common ground, builds understanding and catalyzes people to take greater action in community endeavours.

2.  Peterborough is one of the highest-churched areas per capita in all of Canada - 22% more churches per capita than the rest of the country.

3.  The church is local, therefore it needs a local voice - the station will reflect local interests, giving local people a platform to contribute on matters of faith and family.

Programming For FM 90.5
1.  Local news, every hour.

2.  Three hours a day of local, call-in talk shows (local issues, plus faith and family themes).

3.  Twice daily death notices.

4.  Free advertising for your favourite charity/not-for-profit organization.

5.  Uplifting, inspiring, Bible teaching and Christian talk programs.

6.  Live, youth issues talk show, giving youth the voice to speak on what matters to them.
