Local program share in May 1966 was increased to 37 hours and was further incremented to 42/week in March 1969. Day time wattage was increased to 1,000 watts in April 1975.

ERP for the nighttime was also changed to 1,000 watts in 1984. Effective control was transferred to Power Corporation of Canada owned and operated by Mr. Desmarais thus changing the ownership of Katenac Holdings Ltd. Intercorporate reorganization of the radio and TV assets put CKCB-AM under Power Broadcasting Inc. a newly created subsidiary. The part-time satellite of CKBB-AM was shifted to FM band, changing frequency to 95.1 MHz and ERP to 250 watts with Pop, Dance and Rock format to debut. Wattage was decremented to 350 watts and transmitter site was moved to southwest of Collingwood with an increased antenna height. After making the purchase of PBI on March 24, 2000 Corus Entertainment Inc. formally took over the station on April 13, 2000. Power was increased to 4,000 watts.
