CKWX News1130 is a 24-hour all-news station broadcasting to residents of Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, British Columbia. Upon the switch to its current format in 1996, News1130 introduced up-to-the minute frequent traffic reports every 10 minutes, a service already present in major American metropolises such as Los Angeles, but unheard of in Vancouver. News1130's biggest influence on Vancouver Radio has been regular and frequent traffic reports, and numerous other stations now offer scheduled traffic reports.

History

CKWX first began broadcasting in Nanaimo, British Columbia on April 1, 1923 as CFDC, then owned by automotive and electronics store owner Arthur "Sparks" Halstead and operating on its original frequency of 430 meters with 10 watts of power (later increased to 50 watts). In 1925, the station switched frequencies to 730 AM and cut its power back to 10 watts to share time with Vancouver stations CFCQ, CKCD, CKFC and CJKC. Nanaimo redirects here. ... Mediumwave radio transmissions (sometimes called Medium frequency or MF) are those between the frequencies of 300 kHz and 3000 kHz. ...

In 1927, Halstead opened a new branch of his auto-electric business in Vancouver and decided to relocate CFDC there. The Department of Marine and Fisheries (which then regulated broadcasting in Canada) had not authorized CFDC's move to Vancouver and revoked the station's licence as a result, but listener complaints led to the department to grant a new licence to the station, on the condition that it use new call letters; Halstead complied and the station returned as CKWX, now using 100 watts of power. It broadcast briefly from the Belmont Hotel in downtown Vancouver before moving to the Hotel Georgia, still sharing air time at 730 AM with CFCQ and CKCD in 1928, then with CHLS, CKFC and CKMO in 1929. The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), also referred to as Fisheries and Oceans Canada (PÃªches et OcÃ©ans Canada), is the department within the government of Canada with responsibility for the management and safety of waters under federal jurisdiction. ... CFUN is a Canadian radio station based in Vancouver, British Columbia. ...

In 1933, CKWX moved from 730 to 1010 AM, then to 950 AM in 1938 before settling at 980 AM in 1941 following the Havana Treaty, which took effect on March 27 that year to settle problems with AM radio interference. Arthur Halstead later sold a 40% share of the station to Taylor, Pearson & Carson, which took over station management, moved the studios to Seymour Street and increased its transmitting power to 1000 watts; by 1947, power further increased to 5000 watts and it became an affiliate of the Mutual Broadcasting System, while its transmitter was moved to Lulu Island (now the site of Richmond). The North American Radio Broadcasting Agreement took effect on March 29, 1941, requiring nearly all radio stations in North America to change frequency. ... The Mutual Broadcasting System (MBS) was an American radio network, in operation from 1934 to 1999. ... This page is for the city of Richmond, British Columbia. ...

CKWX went to 24-hour operation on January 1, 1954 at 12:30 AM, with a program called "Concert Under the Stars". In 1956, the studios moved to 1275 Burrard Street, and on August 15, 1957, CKWX switched from 980 (soon taken by CKNW) to its present 1130 AM. The station increased power to 50,000 watts in 1958, the same year it adopted a rock and roll/Top 40 music format (CKWX was, in fact, the first Vancouver radio station to use that format full-time). CKWX was the first 50 kW station in Western Canada. CKNW is the leading talk radio station in Vancouver, British Columbia. ... Rock and roll (also spelled Rock n Roll, especially in its first decade), also called rock, is a form of popular music, usually featuring vocals (often with vocal harmony), electric guitars and a strong back beat; other instruments, such as the saxophone, are common in some styles. ... Top 40 is a radio format based on frequent repetition of songs from a constantly-updated list of the forty best-selling singles. ...

Harold Carson, one-third of the Taylor, Pearson & Carson firm that owned CKWX, died in 1959; the firm would change its name to Selkirk Holdings Ltd. later in the year. CKWX switched formats from Top 40 to MOR music in 1962. Selkirk became a publicly traded company in 1965, and purchased 100% ownership of CKWX (with approval from the Board of Broadcast Governors on October 10, 1966. Selkirk Communications was a Canadian radio and television broadcasting company, which operated from 1959 to 1989. ... This article is about the radio format. ... The Board of Broadcast Governors was a Canadian arms-length government agency created in television and radio broadcasting. ...

On March 7, 1973, CKWX underwent a major change as it dropped its mixed MOR/talk radio format for the country music format the station would become famous for. On February 13, 1979, the CRTC granted CKWX parent Selkirk Holdings a licence for an FM station with a jazz format. Selkirk originally wanted 93.7 FM, but were advised to find a different frequency; after doing so, CJAZ signed on at 92.1 FM on March 1, 1980, as the first Canadian station with an all-jazz format. CJAZ later moved to 96.9 FM, then switched call letters and formats in 1985 as it became CKKS, with an adult contemporary format. Talk radio is a radio format which features discussion of topical issues. ... This article includes a list of works cited but its sources remain unclear because it lacks in-text citations. ... Jazz is a musical art form that originated in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States around the start of the 20th century. ...

CKWX and CKKS moved to their present studios on 2440 Ash Street on June 17, 1988, with the official opening on July 20; on September 28, Maclean-Hunter Ltd. purchased Selkirk Communications and its stations (including CKWX and CKKS) and also received approval from the CRTC to transfer the former Selkirk stations to Rogers Communications Inc.. Rogers Communications Inc. ...

On February 8, 1996, CKWX ended its country music broadcasts after almost 23 years and switched to its present all-news format; and in 2003, CKKS switched formats again and became CKLG-FM, under the Jack FM banner. CKLG is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at FM 96. ... Primary Jack FM logo Jack FM is the moniker and on-air brand of several radio stations in Canada, the United States and now the United Kingdom. ...

A fairly extensive personnel shuffle took place at the station on September 2, 2003. Program Director George Gordon replaced Andrew Dawson as morning co-anchor, joining Kenya Anderson, while Dianne Newman moved to middays joining Brian Brenn. That same day, Jim Bennie joined Joanna Mileos to co-anchor p.m. drive. Following the departure of Kenya Anderson in 2005, Treena Wood and Tammy Moyer alternated in the anchor chair only to be replaced by Dianne Newman in 2006. George Gordon may refer to: George Henry Gordon, U. S. Army general (1823-86) George Gordon, 1st Earl of Aberdeen (1637-1720) George Gordon, 3rd Earl of Aberdeen (1722-1801) George Gordon (politician) (1751-1793) George Gordon (botanist) (1806-1879) George Hamilton Gordon, 4th Earl of Aberdeen (1784-1860); Prime...
