CFCY is a country music radio station in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, broadcasting at 95.1 FM. The station is owned by Maritime Broadcasting System. It was first launched on August 15, 1924 as 10AS on 250 meters. In 1925, 10AS became CFCY and broadcasted at 960 KHz. In 1931, it moved to 580 KHz, and then to 630 in 1933. In 1977, the CBC opened its own station and CFCY disaffiliated from the network. The station has been playing country music since 1996.
On March 24, 2006, approval was given for CFCY to switch over to the FM band. In September, CFCY made its switch to FM and was given permission to simulcast the new station on the old 630 AM signal for 90 days and cease operation of the AM signal afterwards.
