CKDQ (Real Country 910) is a radio station in Drumheller, Alberta. Owned by Stingray Group, it broadcasts a country format. CKDQ is the only station in Canada which broadcasts on 910 AM, a Regional broadcast frequency.

History

The station began broadcasting in 1958 as CJDV, until it changed to its current call sign in 1981. It is a Class B station broadcasting with a power of 50,000 watts, and using a two tower directional antenna daytime and a four tower directional antenna nighttime. The former CJDV callsign now belongs to a radio station in Cambridge, Ontario.

In 2016, the station became a semi-satellite of Camrose/Edmonton sister station CFCW, rebranding from Q91 to 910 CFCW; it carried a mix of CFCW and local programming. In October 2018, CKDQ rebranded as Real Country 910 (adopting a brand used by other Newcap-owned country stations in Alberta).

AM to FM

On May 5, 2023, Stingray Radio Inc. submitted an application to convert CKDQ from the AM band to the FM band. If approved, the station would operate at 92.5 MHz (channel 223B) with an average effective radiated power (ERP) of 24,500 watts (directional antenna with a maximum ERP of 36,600 watts with an effective height of antenna above average terrain [EHAAT] of 39.4 metres). The application was approved by the CRTC on February 9, 2024.
