Newcap has flipped Adult Alternative “Radio 96.5” CKUL-FM Halifax to Hot AC “Mix 96.5“.
Positioned as “The 90s To Now”, the company is considering the shift an evolution of the prior brand as opposed to an outright flip. The station’s Facebook page shouts it with an image proclaiming “Yup, The Music Is Better Now”.
Dan Barton, who formerly programmed crosstown CHR “Z103.5” (now “Hot Country 103.5“) CKHZ, joined Newcap earlier this month to program CKUL.
