Provincial broadcaster CKUA-FM christens its new Calgary street level studios starting on Friday Sept. 23 at noon with an open house. Broadcasting on 93.7 FM, 20 per cent of CKUA’s weekly programming originates from Calgary, contrary to the popularly held notion that CKUA is solely an Edmonton station. Key Calgary-originated weekday day parts include Haley Muir from noon to 2 p.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. mainstay David Ward and his show Freeway. Until now, the Calgary hosts have been contributing from home studios or temporary digs at Heritage Posters and Music. Now, they’ll be visible to passersby as they broadcast from the Calgary Foundation-funded storefront studios on the King Eddy side of Studio Bell.
