CIMM-FM is a Canadian radio station that broadcasts a community radio format at 99.5 FM in Ucluelet, western Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The station is branded as Ukee Radio (formerly Long Beach Radio). It serves the Long Beach area along with its sister station CHMZ-FM "Tuff City Radio" (90.1) in Tofino, both owned by McBride Communications.
A number of local, mostly volunteer hosts provide themed programming. CIMM-FM also airs some nationally syndicated programs and Vancouver Canucks hockey games. Daily information programming includes local and national news and sports, tide reports, weather, driving conditions, marine weather and surf conditions.
The station received approval on March 14, 2006 and began broadcasting on September 1, 2006.[1] In 2016, McBride dropped the Long Beach Radio simulcast on CHMZ-FM 90.1 Tofino and CIMM-FM 99.5 Ucluelet, replacing it with local programming on both stations. Both stations have retained their eclectic rock & variety formats.
