CJVA-FM is a French language Canadian radio station broadcasting in Caraquet, New Brunswick at 94.1 MHz (FM). CJVA-FM is owned and operated by Radio Acadie, Limitée.

History

On July 18, 1973, Dr. Alphee Michaud on behalf of a company to be incorporated was awarded a licence for a new AM station at Caraquet. The station officially began broadcasting on its original frequency at AM 810 kHz in 1977.

In 1995, the station began receiving programs from CKLE-FM Bathurst, New Brunswick part-time.^[1]

In 2014, Radio Acadie submitted an application to convert CJVA from 810 kHz on the AM band to 94.1 MHz on the FM band. This application received approval by the CRTC on February 13, 2015. ^[2] ^[3]

CJVA shutdown its old AM 810 transmitter on August 1, 2016. Programming would continue on CJVA-FM 94.1.
