Riding Mountain Broadcasting Ltd is a communication company based in Brandon, Manitoba. The company runs two radio stations: CKLQ (880 Q Country) and CKLF (94.7 Star FM). Riding Mountain Broadcasting started in 1977 with CKLQ. The original CKLQ was broadcast on the frequency 1570 AM with a power of 1,000 [Canadian Communications Foundation - http://www.broadcasting-history.ca/listings_and_histories/radio/listings.php?pt=92&r=] . In 1985, CKLQ switched to the 880 AM frequency and increased its power to 10,000. In 2000, Riding Mountain Broadcasting created a second radio station, CKLF-FM. CKLF is broadcast on the frequency 94.7 FM with a power of 100,000.

In 2003, Riding Mountain Broadcasting became a subsidiary of Westman Communications Group [Canadian Radio and Television Commission - http://www.crtc.gc.ca/archive/ENG/Notices/2003/pb2003-50.htm] .
