Within the four-station ensemble, Judaïques FM was intended as the most politically independent of the set[2] and emphasized a multicultural viewpoint.
For more than a decade, Radio Communauté, renamed RCJ in 1992, handled many of the management functions of Judaïques FM in exchange for most of its allotted air time.
[5] Judaïques FM was created that October in a split from Radio J and originally had no live programming, relying on recorded music.
[6] Radio Communauté, which renamed itself RCJ (Radio Communauté–Judaïques FM[8]) in 1992 as a reflection of the arrangement,[9] handled most of the management functions and programming for Judaïques, which in turn would directly produce just 6 to 7 hours a week of programming, compared to the six hours a day each group was assigned on the frequency.
[2] At that time, both stations moved to the same facilities, though they remained separate for regulatory purposes,[2] and began to share news and other resources.
