History

The station was launched in 1927 as CHGS at 1120 kHz. In 1934, it moved to 1450, then to 1480 in 1941, and finally to 1240 as CJRW on November 17, 1948.

In November 1999, CJRW jumped from AM to FM at 102.1 MHz. It then became known as C102. In 2002, the Gulf Broadcasting Company, which was owned by Paul Schurman and family, was sold to Maritime Broadcasting System.

In the fall of 2006, the station changed its format from country to classic rock. In August 2007 the station flipped formats again to classic hits and is now 102.1 Spud FM playing "everything classic".
