Before 2002, CHVD was an AM radio station, transmitting on 1230 kHz. A rebroadcaster, CHVD-1, was also launched on 92.1 FM in Saint-Félicien, because of reception problems in that particular city, in 1986.

Retrieved on 2008-03-26.]

In 2001, Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) gave its approval for the station to move to 100.3 MHz with an effective power of 50,000 watts [http://www.crtc.gc.ca/archive/FRN/Decisions/2001/db2001-657.htm Décision CRTC 2001-657] fr icon.
