CJYQ

CJYQ, or Classic Hits Q93 as it was known under Newcap, continued to be an apparently viable station until the late 1990s, when the station was quietly switched to full-time automation, dropping all but a bare minimum of announcers (shared with CKIX and later VOCM) to read weather forecasts and other brief segments.

In exchange the station would air a greater amount of Canadian content than required (40% instead of 35%), of which at least half (or 20% overall) would have to be Newfoundland music.

The station adopted its This is Newfoundland and Labrador branding in April 2010 to coincide with the launch of a new Newcap-owned tourism portal of the same name.

On January 28, 2014, a fire destroyed CJYQ's broadcasting tower, knocking the station of off the air.

On April 30, 2021, CJYQ was rebranded as New Country 930 to align with other country-formatted stations owned by Stingray.
