Virgin Radio 999 : ウィキペディア英語版
CKFM-FM

CKFM-FM, also known as ''99-9 Virgin Radio'', is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 99.9 on the FM dial in Toronto, Ontario. The station is owned by Bell Media. The station airs a CHR format (as it reports to BDS and Mediabase as a Canadian Top 40 Airplay panel Canadian CHR reporter), and is the flagship of Canada's Virgin Radio stations. CKFM's studios are located at 250 Richmond Street West in the Entertainment District, while its transmitter is located atop the CN Tower.
==History==

The station was launched in 1938 by the Rogers Radio Broadcasting Co. Ltd. (operated by the father of the founder of Rogers Communications, Ted Rogers Sr.) as experimental FM station VE9AK. The station went off the air between 1942 and 1945 due to the war. It began broadcasting at 99.9 FM in 1947 as CFRB-FM, a simulcast of CFRB AM. Rogers Radio Broadcasting eventually became known as Standard Broadcasting which was acquired by Argus Corporation in 1948.
In 1960, the complete simulcast was dropped, in favour of some unique programming.
In 1963, the station changed its call letters to CKFM. All CFRB programming was discontinued. The station adopted a beautiful music/easy listening format, which lasted for many years. During this time period, CKFM carried a few specialty shows, such as a Sunday evening reggae music program. Towards the latter part of the 1980s, CKFM transitioned towards a more younger-targeting adult contemporary format.
The station adopted the brand name Mix 99.9, on September 2, 1991, and adopted a hot adult contemporary format to compete with CHUM-FM. The brand name was changed slightly to 99.9 Mix FM on August 8, 2006, and the branding was phased in throughout the day. This coincided with the return of former Kiss 92 and CHFI morning show hosts Mad Dog and Billie to Toronto radio.
A Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) decision from May 31, 2007, stated that the station's call sign was changed to CFMX-FM.〔(Decision CRTC 2007-359 )〕 Within weeks, the station reverted to CKFM, due to both potential confusion with CFMZ-FM as that station, licensed to Cobourg but also heard in Toronto because of a rebroadcaster, was previously known as CFMX-FM; and because as of November 14, 2007, according to Industry Canada databases, the Toronto rebroadcaster of CFMZ-FM was actually still known as CFMX-FM-1 (not CFMZ-FM-1).〔(Call sign search ) and (Broadcasting database (ZIP file) ) (using the file ''fmstatio.dbf'') from Industry Canada. Retrieved on November 14, 2007.〕
On October 28, 2007, CKFM was purchased by Astral Media as part of its purchase of Standard Broadcasting. Since its purchase by Astral, the hot AC format has gone more in a rhythmic-leaning direction, patterned after sister stations Mix 96 in Montreal and Crave 95 in Vancouver, which both carry rhythmic-leaning hot AC formats. It also airs the ''American Top 40'', which usually airs on CHR stations across the United States and Canada. As of 2010, BDS moved CKFM to the Canadian CHR panel due to its shift in direction which now mirrors that of the current Top 40s in Canada.
