**CFSX** is an [AM](/source/AM_broadcasting) radio station in [Stephenville](/source/Stephenville%2C_Newfoundland_and_Labrador), [Newfoundland and Labrador](/source/Newfoundland_and_Labrador), [Canada](/source/Canada), broadcasting at 870 [kHz](/source/Hertz). Originally launched as a repeater on November 13, 1964, it opened its own studios in 1970. The station is owned by [Stingray Group](/source/Stingray_Group). It is an affiliate of [VOCM](/source/VOCM_(AM)).

In 1985, CFSX moved from 910 to its current frequency, 870.[1]

In September 2016, CFSX was shut down by Newcap Radio without any notice. The station is now a full-time repeater of [CFCB](/source/CFCB) in [Corner Brook](/source/Corner_Brook), changing its identity to *VOCM*. Before then, CFSX operated as a daytime station, and served as a nighttime repeater to CFCB.

CFSX also operated repeat transmitters in two locations:

- **[CFGN-FM](/source/CFGN-FM)** 96.7 in [Port aux Basques](/source/Channel-Port_aux_Basques) (Originally a full-time repeater of CFCB)

- **CFCV-FM** 97.7 in [St. Andrew's](/source/St._Andrew's%2C_Newfoundland_and_Labrador)

From 1973 to the 1990s, CFGN and CFCV operated independently of CFSX and CFCB in the daytime, and served as CFCB's nighttime and weekend repeater until it became a daytime repeater of CFSX.

On April 2, 2001, the sale of Humber Valley Broadcasting Co. Ltd. to Newcap Inc. was approved.[2] This included CFSX, as well as:

- **[CFCB](/source/CFCB)** Corner Brook

- **CFDL-FM** Deer Lake

- **CFNW** Port aux Choix

- **CFNN-FM** St. Anthony

- **[CFGN](/source/CFGN-FM)** Port-aux-Basques

- **CFCV-FM** St. Andrew's
