CHRM-FM is a French-language Canadian radio station located in Matane, Quebec.
Owned and operated by Arsenal Media, who purchased it from Les Communications Matane Inc in 2016.[1]
It broadcasts on 105.3 MHz using an omnidirectional antenna with an effective radiated power of 30,000 watts (class B). CHRM-FM also operates a relay, CHRM-FM-1 in Les Méchins which operates on 91.3 MHz using a directional antenna with an average effective radiated power of 23 watts and a peak effective radiated power of 49 watts (class LP).
The station has an adult contemporary format, and has occasionally had some talk programming and sports play-by-play.
Originally known as CHRM when the station was on the AM band on 1290 kHz, the station moved to FM in 2001.[2] CHRM went on the air on April 13, 1975 and was the first local private radio service in Matane since CKBL (now CBGA-FM) was bought by Radio-Canada in 1972.
The relay in Les Méchins, which was added as part of the conversion to FM, was originally on 104.1 MHz;[3] it was moved to 91.3 MHz in 2005.[4]
