Title
AM 920 Radio CKNX Wingham
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Over 70 years ago, there was a small store called The Radio And Electric Shop in Wingham. Radio was the wonder of the age, and if you owned one of them, you probably sat up half the night listening to stations from Toronto, Montreal, New York or Chicago. The Radio And Electric Shop sold and serviced radio sets, and catered to the needs of a rapidly growing audience. The owner was W.T. "Doc" Cruickshank. One slow business day in February of 1926, "Doc" found instructions in a Popular Mechanics magazine for a small radio transmitter. Using spare parts from his shop, he built one, and set up a small studio in the back of this store. He called his hobby station J.O.K.E. and began playing music and adding local news and sports scores for those in the neighbourhood that could pick up his signal.
