News/Talk 630 CHED 20 Years Old Today

Postby radiofan » Sun Dec 01, 2013 10:37 am

At 6AM on December 1, 1993 (Just 12 hours before the end of CJCA) the music stopped at 630 CHED and Alberta's New Information Superstation was born.
After 30 plus years of rockin' the Edmonton airwaves, CHED went from Rock to Talk when then GM Doug Rutherford set out to clone Vancouver's CKNW in Edmonton.

Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.
