CKKQ-FM

CKKQ-FM, known as 100.3 The Q or The Q, is a broadcast radio station in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. CKKQ broadcasts online and at a frequency of 100.3 MHz on the FM band. The station has broadcast a mainstream rock format since its inception, but has a more classic rock sound since 2001, when sister station CKXM-AM/FM became The Zone @ 91.3 with the CJZN calls and an alternative rock format. It used to have an adult album alternative lean up until Pattison took over the station from OK Radio.

The station placed 2nd in the Spring 2012 BBM Ratings for Victoria.

History

In April 1987, the OK Radio Group Ltd. (known at the time as Victoria Communications Ltd.) was granted an FM radio license and launched 100.3 The Q, then known as Q-100, in December 1987. The first song played was The Rolling Stones' "Start Me Up".

In May 1999, CKKQ and sister station CKXM (now known as CJZN-FM (The Zone @ 91-3)) moved to the top floor of 2750 Quadra Street, a three-storey Victoria office building purchased by the OK Radio Group Ltd. in the fall of 1998.

  • Trapdoor

    A trapdoor is a sliding or hinged door, flush with the surface of a floor, roof, or ceiling, or in the stage of a theatre. A hatch, an opening which may also be in a wall and need not be flush with the surface, is similar; in some cases either name is applicable. A small door in a wall, floor or ceiling used to gain access to equipment is called an access hatch or access door.

    History

    Originally, trapdoors were sack traps in mills, and allowed the sacks to pass up through the mill while naturally falling back to a closed position.

    Many buildings with flat roofs have hatches that provide access to the roof; on ships, hatches—usually not flush, and never called trapdoors—provide access to the deck. Cargo ships, including bulk carriers, have large hatches for access to the holds.

    Gallows

    Most 19th- and 20th-century gallows featured a trapdoor, usually with two flaps. The victim was placed at the join. The edge of a trapdoor farthest from the hinge accelerates faster than gravity, so that the prisoner does not hit the flaps but falls freely.

    Trapdoor (disambiguation)

    A trapdoor is a door set into a floor or ceiling.

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    Trap Door

    by: Ozzy Osbourne

    Can you see your reflection
    False strength, hollow protection
    Run from pain and rejection
    The truth stabs again
    Till the skin is broken
    And the cut is open
    And the words once spoken
    Just fade away
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Big head leads to confusion
    Strong heart pumps up delusion
    Tough talk, one voice communion
    Medicate the pain
    Justify your ego
    Living with denial
    And the thoughts so vile
    Won't fade away
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    It's coming
    You're falling
    You're on your own with no one left to blame
    Can't sleep? 'cause you've made your own bed
    The sentence of the helpless
    Sink deep to the trial in your head
    The court of the selfish
    Why? Tell me why? Can't evade or escape the reality
    A true lie and a broken promise
    A Judas and a doubting Thomas
    A tragedy just to keep you honest
    Guilty always fall
    Through the trap door
    Fear the trap door
    Through the trap door
    The trap door, the trap door
    No fear, too scared to look up
    Can't win, nothing but bad luck
    Clock ticks, your time to face up
    You can't run for long
    When your world is broken
    Your trap door is open
    The very words you choke on
    Just fade away
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
    Too late, standing on the trap door
