CIRK signed on the air in 1979 as K-97 and became an Edmonton favourite during the 1980's. For many years, mornings were hosted by Bruce Kenyon. The station has a reputation of keeping long term talented announcers. Rob Berg since the early 80's and Melissa Wright mid 90's. In 1997 the station was rebranded as K-Rock . In 1998 the station was purchased by Newcap Broadcasting, who already owned CKRA-FM and CFCW-AM in the city.
