CKBI (900 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. Owned by the Jim Pattison Group, it broadcasts a country radio format branded as 900 CKBI. The studios and offices are on Central Avenue in Prince Albert. CKBI is the broadcast home of the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hockey League, and also carries live broadcasts of Saskatchewan Roughriders CFL games.[1]
By day, CKBI is powered at 10,000 watts non-directional. But at night, to reduce interference to other stations, it reduces power to 2,800 watts. The transmitter is on Gange Road at Tower Road in Red Deer Hill, Saskatchewan.[2] CKBI is also heard on two FM rebroadcasters, one in Big River and one in La Ronge.
