CJTN-FM is a radio station at FM 107.1 MHz, serving the Belleville/Quinte West region in Ontario. Owned by Quinte Broadcasting, the station is a classic rock format branded as Rock 107.

History

The station originally began broadcasting at 1270 kHz in 1979 to service Trenton, hence the "TN" in the call sign.[1] Ted Snider was the station's first manager. CJTN moved to its current frequency at 107.1 FM on August 16, 2004,[2] and was branded as Lite 107 with an adult contemporary format. The station changed to a classic rock format on May 18, 2007 and was re-branded as Rock 107, Quinte's Classic Rock.

Rock 107's weekday line-up consists of The Morning Buzz with Buzz Collins featuring Tim Durkin with news and Jack Miller with sports. Rick Kevan hosts afternoons. Special feature shows include The House of Hair with Dee Snider on Friday nights, The Acoustic Storm with Jeff Parets on Saturday mornings, Flashback with Max Pinfield on Saturday nights and Sunday mornings and weekend afternoons with Greg Moulton and Scott Hunter.

CJTN doesn't have a lot of power due to interference with CILQ-FM in Toronto, Ontario.
