CKLG

Vancouver, British Columbia's 99.3 FM CKLG went on the air as an Easy Listening station in the fall of 1964.  In 1967 they started playing Rock and Folk music during late night hours and eventually expanded it all day except for 6-10 AM when they still played Classical/Easy Listening music.  In January, 1979 they became CFOX and have played different types of Rock music ever since.  The last song played on CKLG was "The End" by The Doors and the first song on CFOX was Steely Dan's "FM (No Static At All)".
The CKLG call letters currently still exist in Vancouver as "96.9 Jack FM".  Some old CKLG-AM stickers can be seen here.
