== History ==
CHML began operations in 1927 as a response to censorship of political discussions by Hamilton's first radio station, CKOC. The original owner was Maple Leaf Radio Company, operated by George H. Lees, a former mayor of Hamilton.〔"Hamilton L Two Ex-Mayors in Three Days." ''Toronto Globe & Mail'', October 19, 1936, p. 13.〕 The "HML" in the call-sign stood for "Hamilton Maple Leaf". CHML made its debut on Wednesday September 28, 1927.〔"Radio." ''Toronto Globe & Mail'', September 28, 1927, p. 13.〕 In those early years, CHML operated at 341 meters, or 880 kilocycles, on the AM band. 〔 "For Wednesday October 10." Toronto Globe & Mail, October 10, 1928, p. 6. 〕 In early December 1934, George Lees sold the station to Senator Arthur Hardy. At that time, CHML was operating with only 50 watts of power, and the new owner hoped to increase it to 100 watts.〔Senator A.C. Hardy Buys Station CHML." ''Toronto Star'', December 5, 1934, p. 2.〕 In 1936, Hardy asked local broadcaster Ken Soble to become the station's manager.〔Barney Milford. "Exhibit B in the Great TV Debate." ''Maclean's'', October 15, 1953, p. 79.〕 By 1944, Soble was able to purchase the station. Shortly after Soble's death in 1966, his estate sold the station to Western Broadcasting, later known as Western International Communications. Corus took over Western's radio assets in late 1999; this included twelve radio stations, among which was CHML. 〔 Gillian Livingston. "CanWest, Shaw Split WIC Assets. " ''Toronto Star'', October 16, 1999, p. E3. 〕
