CFMJ
CFMJ is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 640 kHz on the AM dial. It is officially licensed to Richmond Hill, Ontario, but the studio is in the Corus Quay building, located at 125 Queens Quay East in Toronto. The station airs a talk radio and sports format targeted to the entire Greater Toronto Area.
CFMJ transmits with an eight-tower directional antenna; although it is a Toronto market station that is licensed to a suburb located to the north of the city, its transmitter is actually located in the town of Lincoln, in Niagara Region, near the southeast corner of Greenlane and Merritt Road. This location allows the station's 50,000 watt signal to cover a large portion of Southern Ontario beyond Greater Toronto, as well as western New York state, both during the day and at night.
==History==
The station began in 1957 under the callsign CJRH, on the 1310 frequency. It changed its call letters to CFGM in 1961. The station adopted a country music format in 1964; a few years later, they became Canada's first 24-hour country station. Don Daynard was a notable host with the station in the 1960s.
The station moved to 1320 in 1978, and to 640 in 1989.〔(Decision CRTC 87-376 )〕 On June 29, 1990, at 5 PM, the station changed its format and call letters, broadcasting a rock-leaning CHR format as CHOG (branded ''640 The Hog''). In June 1992, the station rebranded as ''AM 640: The Beat Of Toronto'', and adjusted its playlist to a more rhythmic lean. Several notable radio personalities were associated with the station during this era, including John Gallagher, Tarzan Dan, Pat Cochrane, Kenny 'The Hitman' Caughlin, Roger Kelly and the Toronto radio team of Jesse and Gene. After CFTR moved from contemporary hits to all-news in 1993, AM 640 (still with the calls CHOG) was the last contemporary hit radio station in Toronto proper (and the very last AM station in the area to broadcast Top 40 hits) until CISS adopted the format in 1999. Talk shows came to take up a substantial part of the station's schedule, particularly during midday periods when many of the station's hit music listeners might normally be in school.
