CHER-FM

CHER-FM is a Canadian radio station broadcasting from Sydney, Nova Scotia, at 98.3 FM.

The station hit the airwaves in December 1965, broadcasting at 950 AM until June 11, 2007 when it officially switched to 98.3 FM.

On August 11, 2006, the station received CRTC approval to convert to the FM dial which officially occurred at 10:00 a.m. on June 11, 2007; the final song played before the official switchover was "The Long and Winding Road" by The Beatles.

The FM signal had a brief testing period before the switch, playing a wide variety of rock, pop and oldies songs.

The owners of the station had received numerous complaints for poor signal quality on AM 950 prior to applying for the FM license.
