History
On January 11, 2011, CHTK received Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission approval to convert CHTK to 99.1 MHz.[1]
As part of a mass format reorganization by Bell Media, on May 18, 2021, CHTK flipped to adult hits, and adopted the Bounce branding.[2]
On February 8, 2024, Bell announced a restructuring that included the sale of 45 of its 103 radio stations to seven buyers, subject to approval by the CRTC, including CHTK, which was sold to Vista Radio. The application was approved on February 13, 2025.[3][4] On April 14, 2025, the station rebranded under Vista's Coast FM brand with no change in format.[5]
