CJYC-FM is a Canadian radio station broadcasting from Saint John, New Brunswick at 98.9 MHz. It is owned and operated by Maritime Broadcasting System. The station plays a classic rock format and is now branded as 98.9 Big John FM, but was known as C98 until August 2006.
The station began broadcasting in 1965 as CFBC-FM, the first FM station in New Brunswick. CFBC-FM was a companion to CFBC AM. CFBC-FM's license was revoked in 1977 for "failing to serve the public interest", but owner Fundy Broadcasting Company re-applied for, and won, an FM license. The station returned to the air in 1978 as CJYC-FM. MBS purchased CFBC and CJYC in 1997. Newcap Broadcasting briefly operated the station under MBS's purview in the late 1990s.
