  • New Schedule Launches

    Posted by Rob on October 1st, 2007

    October first is the start of our brand new schedule at CKUW. Many of your favourite shows have moved, we’ve re-distributed the spoken word content and slotted the Entertainment guide at regular times through the day.

    Your feed back is appreciated, send us email [email protected] or call – 786-9782.

    NOTE: The updated program grid and archive will be a little out of whack until the end of October. If you need to find an archive of a show from before Oct 1st, please contact staff and we can help you out.
