Originally launching at 1370 AM on January 12, 1976, it moved to 750 in 1985,[1] and finally to 600 (the former AM location of sister station CFQC radio) in 1995.
CJWW's country music format has been in place since its launch in 1976; most of its contemporaries from that era have since changed broadcast format (some several times), leaving CJWW one of the only longstanding Saskatoon radio stations still following its original mandate.
