Initially launched as CHOR, on a frequency of 670 kHz in 1975, the very first license was an AM carrier current license making it a cable or closed circuit radio. CRTC granted a new license for a multilingual (French and English) radio on Nov 9, 1989; the now official student FM would broadcast on a frequency of 89.1 MHz with an ERP of 3,200 w. It was officially launched on May 31, 1991 to ultimately replace the carrier current radio. CRTC renewed the license of the channel on Aug 13, 2007 to Aug 31, 2014.
