CJDV, branded as 107.5 Dave FM, is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 107.5 FM in the Tri-Cities, with offices in Cambridge, Ontario as well as Kitchener, Ontario. The station airs a Rock oriented adult hits format.

The station was launched in 1954 by Galt Broadcasting as AM 1110 CKGR, a daytimer. With an ownership change in 1956, the station adopted the new call sign CFTJ.

In 1975, the station moved to AM 1320, and CKKW in nearby Kitchener moved from 1320 to 1090. Concurrently with this change, CFTJ moved to 24-hour broadcasting. This was planned as a temporary move — with CFGM in Richmond Hill scheduled to move to the 1320 frequency in 1978, CFTJ moved again to AM 960 in 1977.

In 1987, the station changed its call sign again, to CIAM, and was acquired by Kawartha Broadcasting. Kawartha became a division of Power Broadcasting in 1989.

On June 25, 1997, the station was licensed by the CRTC to move to the FM band. [ [http://www.crtc.gc.ca/archive/ENG/Decisions/1997/DB97-271.HTM Decision CRTC 97-271] ] It completed the move on May 25, 1998, launching on 92.9 FM with the new call sign CIZN and an adult contemporary format and known as "The Zone".

In 2000, the station was purchased by its current owner, Corus Entertainment. Corus applied to the CRTC to move the station's frequency to 107.5 in 2003, due to the weak 92.9 signal impairing the station's financial stability. The change was approved. CIZN left the air on July 20, 2003, and on July 21, 2003 the station relaunched on 107.5 with its current call sign, format and branding.

In 2006, CJDV's application to increase power was denied. [ [http://www.crtc.gc.ca/archive/ENG/Decisions/2006/db2006-261.htm Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2006-261] ]
