CKKQ-FM, known as 100.3 The Q or The Q, is a broadcast radio station in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. CKKQ broadcasts (online ) and at a frequency of 100.3 MHz on the FM band. The station has broadcast a mainstream rock format since its inception, but has a more classic rock sound since 2001, when sister station CKXM-AM/FM became The Zone @ 91.3 with the CJZN calls and an alternative rock format. It used to have an adult album alternative lean up until Pattison took over the station from OK Radio. The station placed 2nd in the Spring 2012 BBM Ratings for Victoria.〔()〕 ==History== In April 1987, the OK Radio Group Ltd. (known at the time as Victoria Communications Ltd.) was granted an FM radio license and launched ''100.3 The Q'', then known as ''Q-100'', in December 1987. The first song played was The Rolling Stones' "Start Me Up".〔(Decision CRTC 87-308 )〕〔(Decision CRTC 87-921 )〕 In May 1999, CKKQ and sister station CKXM (now known as CJZN-FM (The Zone @ 91-3)) moved to the top floor of 2750 Quadra Street, a three-storey Victoria office building purchased by the OK Radio Group Ltd. in the fall of 1998. Thanks to the prime position of CKKQ's transmitter on the Malahat Ridge, its signal reaches up Vancouver Island as far north as Nanaimo, onto the Lower Mainland as far east as Kent and into Washington as far south as Tacoma, on a good day. In 2000, CKKQ added a transmitter in Sooke on the frequency 94.7 FM with the callsign CKKQ-FM-1.〔(Decision CRTC 2000-42 )〕 In 2001, CKKQ actually achieved a 0.1 share in the American Arbitron ratings for Seattle/Tacoma, placing them 45th in the overall standings. This led Ed Bain and ''The Q! Morning Show'' into a chant of "We're 45th! We're 45th!" On December 1, 2006, CKKQ and CJZN came under the ownership of the Jim Pattison Broadcast Group LP. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「CKKQ-FM」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
