The Scope (CJRU-AM) is a campus and community radio owned by Ryerson Radio Incorporated and launched on March 31, 2016. The low powered campus station was given a frequency of 1280 kHz and an ERP of 99 w by CRTC upon approval of Dec 11, 2014. After some crucial testing the Ryerson University station officially singed on air on March 31, 2016. A previous applications was deferred by CRTC on Sep 11, 2012; the license was won by CIND-FM that would host indie rock. It succeeded CKLN-FM which was active from 1983 to 2011 before getting closed due to compliance issues. The mistrust caused by the predecessor didn’t hinder the FM from serving the community and college. Bob Wiseman, Blue Rodeo and Ron Sexsmith were instrumental in the foundation of the radio.
