is a
Canadian Campus /
Community Radio station, owned by CKLN Radio, Inc. and operating out of
Ryerson University in
Toronto, Ontario . It broadcasts at 88.1 on the
FM dial.
CKLN was licensed by the
CRTC in
1983 . Ryerson had surrendered its earlier radio station,
CJRT-FM , due to financial constraints, although that station was revived by the government of
Bill Davis as an independent
Public Radio station.
CKLN is one of Toronto's most respected radio stations in ''any'' format, frequently being named as a listener favourite in magazine and newspaper polls.
Unlike most campus-situated radio stations in Canada, CKLN is not owned by the hosting institution. Although some of its funding is provided by the
Ryerson Students' Union , it is an independent organization separate from Ryerson University.
