History.
On September 15, 2000, Joel Virtanen, on behalf of Northwest Broadcasting, received approval by the CRTC to operate a new FM radio station to broadcast at 104.5 MHz in Kaministiquia.
CFQK began broadcasting in 2001 or 2002, and added the CKED rebroadcastter later in 2003.
 Both frequencies are low-power transmitters with partial audience reach into the nearby city of Thunder Bay.
On June 10, 2005, the CRTC denied an application by Dougall Media to acquire the station.
Since CFQK-FM signed on in 2002, the station has gone through a number of short-lived formats such as hot ac/oldies "Max 104.5", country music "Cottage Country 104", and adult hits "Larry FM". In mid-2005, the station dropped the adult hits "Larry FM" format and switched to a hot adult contemporary format known as "103.5, 104.5 HOT-FM". Earlier that same year, an unrelated radio station CKTG-FM in Thunder Bay dropped its "Hot 105.3" Hot AC/CHR format to classic rock.
In May 2008, CFQK-FM and its repeater CKED-FM once again changed formats this time to a country music format, known as "103.5 The Thunder".
In April 2010, the station applied to increase the effective radiated power for CFQK-FM from 50 watts to 250 watts and its repeater CKED-FM from 10 watts to 250 watts. This application was denied by the CRTC on October 15, 2010.
On June 13, 2014, CFQK-FM and CKED-FM dropped the Thunder Country format and switched to a hot adult contemporary format as "Energy FM".
