The station has an adult contemporary format and is part of the RockDétente network which operates across Quebec and Eastern Ontario. The station received CRTC approval in 1986. It started operations on July 31, 1987 as a sister station to the now-defunct CJMT 1420 that station closed on September 30, 1994 when the Télémédia network and the Radiomutuel network merged to form the Radiomédia (now Corus Québec) network. CFIX-FM became part of the Rock Détente network in 1992. CFIX was formerly the callsign of a now-defunct AM radio station at 1170 kHz out of Cornwall, Ontario up until 1983 when the station went dark due to technical and financial problems. |
