The simulcast was subsequently dropped in the 1950s, leaving the station silent. The owners relaunched the FM signal on the 95.3 frequency in 1964, with distinct programming from its AM sister station. In 1967 the station adopted the new callsign CKDS, in honour of company founder Kenneth D. Soble who had died in 1966.In 1974, CHML and CKDS were purchased by ML Radio, a division of what was to become Western International Communications. In 1991, CKDS adopted the CJXY callsign and a rock music format as Y95.3.In 2000, CHML and CJXY were acquired by Corus Entertainment. The following year, CJXY swapped frequencies with Corus' CING, taking over CING's former 107.9 frequency; at the same time it changed its moniker to Y108.Y108 had old-time CFNY host Alan Cross as program director until 2004, when he returned to CFNY. Jim McCourtie is currently CJXY's program Director.
