On Oct 3, 2011 the G98.7FM started testing its signal with a variety format including a mix of R&B, Hip Hop, Jazz, Reggae, Gospel and others from its studios located at 34 Kern Road, Don Mills, York Mills. On Nov 14, 2011 G98.7 FM finally singed on air with all the mixes mentioned earlier. A repeater of the G98.7 was denied by commission on Nov 5, 2014 that would operate at Scarborough on a frequency of 102.7 MHz (as proposed by Intercity). G98.7 participated in a bid to move its dial tune to 88.1 MHz but couldn’t succeed at the end when CIND took the frequency instead. Gordon was granted a license by CRTC for a TV station serving the Caribbean diaspora on Oct 21, 2014. The Way We Groove is the catchphrase of G98.7 FM. You can listen the G98.7FM online with music, G-Mixes, G Blogs, community event listings, national, international, Caribbean and African news, sports updates, contests, G-Club, podcasts, playlists and more.
