I'm glad to see that Golden West getting a bit creative when it comes to branding their new radio stations these days. DRUM FM in Drumheller was the first in this new era a couple years ago. All they have to do now is rebrand some of those other generic sounding stations like MAGIC 98.3 in Saskatoon to TOON FM, THE EAGLE in Winkler to WINK FM, MAGIC 97.1 in Swift Current to THE CURRENT, MIX 103 in Moose Jaw to THE MOOSE, etc. etc. The possibilities are endless.

No, I think FLIPPER FM might be more appropriate.............

I wonder who owns the call letters beginning CD. I'm pretty sure Canada doesn't or you could be CDAN. I'm lucky enough to be able to be CJON and still stay in Canada.

Just noticed, while researching New Zealand call letters, that CDAN would place Dan in Chile.

I listened to Bolt FM a few days ago and i like what they play plus Humboldt was due to have a music mix format serving East Central SK and finally they do.
