CJGO also has a rebroadcaster in Rouyn-Noranda, CHGO-FM-1, 95.7 FM; the repeater originally rebroadcast sister station CHGO in Val-d'Or until August 2010, when it switched to CJGO.[1][2] Although the station is licensed to La Sarre and the transmitter in Rouyn-Noranda is legally a rebroadcaster, the station's actual studios are located in Rouyn-Noranda.
The station was originally an AM station, CKLS, converting to 102.1 FM in 1997.[3][4]
CJGO shares much of its programming with CHGO, although the two stations each produce their own separate morning programs. CHGO and CJGO are owned by RNC Media.
