880 CHED’s ‘Reset Your Preset’ drive-thru party happening this Friday

Typically we tell you ‘don’t touch that dial,’ but today we want you to reset your preset from 630 AM to the new 880 CHED, and those that do could win Oilers tickets, a chance to see Bruce Springsteen live and many other prizes.

Edmonton’s breaking news, traffic, weather, sports and talk radio station, 630 CHED, is moving to a new home. Starting on Wednesday, Oct. 9, listeners can now find CHED on 880 on the AM dial.

“Today as we move CHED over to 880, we proudly continue our legacy as Edmonton’s most dedicated community champions,” said Andrew Murdoch, manager of Talk & Talent at CHED.
