Cool 100.1 FM legally known as CHCQ-FM is a country format music station in Belleville, ON. CJOJ is the sibling and Starboard Communications has the ownership to the channels. Today’s Best Country is the catchphrase used by the radio. The launch of the channel dates back 2000 when CRTC called the shots in response to Anthony Zwig’s application for the establishment of the FM radio that would air on a frequency of 100.1 MHz with an ERP of 40,000 w. The change in transmitter site and ERP was approved in Sep 2001; 21,000 w was the new wattage chosen by CHCQ. After some signal the station officially signed on air on Oct 31, 2001 as Q100 Quinte Country.
