CKUA Radio Network

CKUA Radio Network logohttp://www.ckua.com

The CKUA Radio Network has been operating in Alberta, Canada for more than 70 years. One of the world's oldest public broadcasters, CKUA now maintains its eclectic mix of music and educational programs over a network of 16 FM transmitters, one AM transmitter and one satellite. The Internet carries our popular Real Audio broadcast to more than 37 countries.

After seventy years, CKUA remains a unique and exciting public broadcaster--rich in tradition, and fresh and innovative in its programming and business operations. CKUA continues to accomplish significant milestones and continually developed its roots across Alberta.

Since the Government of Alberta privatized the station in 1994, CKUA has been governed by the non-profit CKUA Radio Foundation, through a combination of commercials, corporate underwriting of programs, and listener donations. CKUA truly is public radio, freely supported by our listener base.
