On the heels of its acquisition of streamer TuneIn, Stingray is growing its radio cluster in Calgary with the purchase of Hot AC “C97.7” CHUP-FM Calgary from Rawlco Radio.
CHUP-FM will become Stingray’s third FM in Calgary joining their CHR “90.3 Amp Radio” CKMP-FM and Classic Hits “XL 103” CFXL-FM.
Stingray President Steve Jones said, “We are excited to expand our presence in the vibrant Calgary market. C97.7 has built a strong connection with listeners and the community, and we are committed to continuing the fantastic legacy that the Rawlco Radio team started. This acquisition is a natural complement to our existing Calgary stations, strengthening our portfolio of high-quality radio stations and reinforcing our commitment to providing the best in local radio to audiences and businesses across Canada.”
The deal is subject to CRTC approval which is expected in the second quarter of Stingray’s 2027 fiscal year. Purchase price was not disclosed. Rawlco retains its three stations each in Regina and Saskatoon SK.
