CHUR-FM

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

CHUR is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts an adult contemporary format at 100.5 FM in North Bay, Ontario. The station uses the on-air brand EZRock (pronounced "Easy Rock", not "E-Zed Rock".)

The station was launched in 1984 by Gateway City Broadcasting, at 840 AM. It was subsequently acquired in 1985 by Mid-Canada Radio, and in 1990 by the Pelmorex Radio Network.

Pelmorex converted the station to FM in 1997, and sold it to Telemedia the following year. Under Telemedia's ownership, the station adopted the current EZ Rock brand.

In 2002, Telemedia was acquired by Standard Broadcasting, and CHUR was one of the stations sold by Standard to Rogers Communications.
