CFRG was a Canadian radio station, which broadcast in Gravelbourg, Saskatchewan from 1952 to 1973. A private affiliate of Radio-Canada, the station was owned by Radio-Gravelbourg Ltée.
CFRG originally aired at 1230 AM, signing on June 1, 1952.[1] On October 14, 1956, the station became a daytimer, moving to 710 during the day but retaining a nighttime signal on the original 1230 frequency with the call sign CFGR. The two stations broadcast with 5,000 and 250 watts, respectively.[2]
The station and CFNS in Saskatoon were purchased by Radio-Canada in 1973[3] to become rebroadcasters of Regina's new CBKF-FM.[4] The transmitter, which now has the call sign CBKF-1, is still in operation as a rebroadcaster of CBKF on 690 kHz.
The call sign was later revived on CFRG-FM, a francophone community radio station in Gravelbourg.[5]
