History and programming
The station was launched in 1947. Along with CJNS-FM, an FM satellite station in Meadow Lake, the stations serve a significant area of rural central Saskatchewan.
The station also broadcasts hockey games for the Battlefords North Stars of the SJHL.
In 2006, CJNB applied to convert from the AM dial to the FM dial at 102.9 MHz. That application was denied by the CRTC on January 4, 2007.
On July 10, 2014, Rawlco Communications announced the sale of its North Battleford radio stations to The Jim Pattison Group.
