History.
CIBX traces its history to the first radio station in New Brunswick, CFNB (the call letters naturally stood for Fredericton, New Brunswick). The station went on the air under the experimental call sign of 10AD broadcasting at 1210 kilocycles in 1923. It was granted a full license as CFNB in 1926. CFNB then moved to 1030 in 1933, and finally to 550 in 1934.
The station was affiliated with the CBC's Trans-Canada Network. In 1959 the station increased its power to 50,000 watts, giving it full-time coverage over most of the Maritime Provinces. The CBC affiliation was dropped in 1964 when the network started its own station in Fredericton, CBZ. CFNB played an adult contemporary format before switching to oldies in the early 1990s.
In 1996, CFNB's parent company, Radio Atlantic, was granted permission to move its signal to 106.9 FM and to eliminate the AM transmitter. The call sign changed in the process, and after a brief simulcast period, CFNB 550 signed off the air on June 11 of that year. The new station, CIBX, played soft adult contemporary music. The former CFNB call sign now belongs to a radio station in D'Arcy, British Columbia, known as CFNB-FM. Over time, CIBX evolved towards hot adult contemporary.
Between 2000 and 2005, CIBX used the on-air "EZ Rock" branding along with other stations in Canada (while using "Capital FM" as a secondary name), although it returned to using only the "Capital" name.
As of July 18, 2012, CIBX officially flipped to Top 40/CHR. It was one of two Top 40 outlets in the Fredericton market as it took on rival station CFRK-FM. The competition lasted nearly three years; on May 31, 2015, CFRK flipped to country, which left CIBX as the only Top 40 station in the market.
CIBX and seven other radio stations in the Atlantic provinces are currently owned by Bell Media.
On December 27, 2020, as part of a mass format reorganization by Bell Media, CIBX shifted to Hot AC and rebranded as "Move 106.9". While the station would run jockless for the first week of the format, on-air staff would return on January 4, 2021; otherwise, no other changes are expected at this time.
