CIQI-FM is a French-language Canadian radio station located in Montmagny, Quebec.
The station has an adult contemporary format[1] and broadcasts on 90.3 MHz using a directional antenna with an average effective radiated power of 17,460 watts and a peak effective radiated power of 41,600 watts (class B).[2]
CIQI-FM is owned and operated by Groupe Radio Simard. The station was authorized by the CRTC on August 26, 2008,[3] and only began testing on June 24, 2011[4] This long delay was caused by the economic recession, and also by the fact that their transmitting equipment was vandalized on November 29, 2010.[1][5] Regular programming began on September 6, 2011, at 4:40 p.m.[6]
Montmagny was previously served by CFEL-FM, from 1987 until that station's move to Lévis in 2009, and by CKBM 1490, which closed due to a bankruptcy in 1983.[7]
