The station airs a community radio format, featuring a variety of musical styles and talk shows.

On February 8, 2001, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) approved an application by Radius Communications Inc. for a new English-language FM community radio programming undertaking at Regina on the frequency 91.3 MHz.

It also hosts annual fundraisers, including radiothons and a garage sale oriented towards music and related items.

The station was also impacted by the Online News Act, which prohibited its Facebook page from being available in Canada and thus hindered the reach of its fundraising activities.
