On July 26, 1972, CJOY-AM-FM received approval to move to new studios and offices at 75 Speedvale Avenue E where it continues to broadcast from today.

Other partners in AM96 were Neil Stilman, Kay Metcalf, Nancy Slatter, Bill Dawkins and Larry Smith.

Well-known broadcasting alumni of CJOY include Norm Jary; former Mayor of Guelph and broadcaster for the New York Rangers, Gordie Tapp; Lloyd Robertson; Al Shaver; Bob Bratina; and Bob McAdorey.

Bratina was on the air March 23, 1965 when the huge black-out occurred in North-Eastern North America.

It provides live coverage of charity fundraisers, and 'on the spot' reporting of breaking news, weather, and sports.

The station also sends out its CJOY Jeep Compass to do on-site, on-air live event coverage.

As of 2022, CJOY began including newer pop hits from the 2000s and 2010s into its playlist while phasing out most classic rock songs giving the station more of a soft adult contemporary sound.
