KFAT/CHUB



This lard-ass is about to break the dreaded 200 pound barrier. Too much pie and not enough veggies during the holidays. Eat less, move more, blah blah blah.......
KFAT was a freeform, Country/Americana station that lasted from 1975 to 1983 and was licensed to Gilroy, California. CHUB broadcast from Nanaimo, British Columbia starting in 1949. Supposedly, the city's nickname is The Hub City hence the call letters. The station moved from 1570 AM to 102.3 FM in 1994 and a year later changed calls to the much less amusing CKWV.

  1. After Nanaimo dumped them the CHUB calls ended up in Red Deer, Alberta on 105.5, ironically another "hub city".
