===Jack-FM===
In early December of [[2002 in radio|2002]], the station switched to [[Christmas music]] for the holidays.  On [[Boxing Day]], at 8 a.m., CKKS flipped to [[adult hits]] as ''[[Jack FM]]''. The first song on "Jack" was "[[You Shook Me All Night Long]]" by [[AC/DC]]. The change ended the ten-year AC war in Vancouver, which meant that [[CHQM-FM]] became the only mainstream AC station in the Vancouver market.<ref>Steve Burgess, "Our own way to rock," ''The Vancouver Sun'', March 29, 2003.</ref> 

Given the "attitude" inherent in the "Jack" brand, management felt that the call letters "CKKS" would maintain an undesirable association with Kiss-FM's "soft favourites" identity. As it turned out, in 2001, Corus Entertainment had abandoned the old CKLG call sign formerly assigned to one of its Vancouver AM stations ([[CHMJ|Mojo AM 730]]). Rogers applied to transfer these letters to Jack FM, and the station's call sign became '''CKLG-FM''' shortly thereafter. This was in part an attempt to trade on [[CHMJ|CKLG-AM]]'s history as a popular Vancouver music station in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. The move was successful, as Jack-FM's ratings increased dramatically, at one point briefly surpassing traditional market leader [[CKNW]] before settling into the upper rankings in the Vancouver market. (The CKKS call sign was subsequently given to a [[Sechelt, British Columbia|Sechelt]] rebroadcaster of [[CISQ-FM]] in [[Squamish, British Columbia]].)<ref>"CKLG moves to the FM dial," ''The Vancouver Sun'', May 3, 2003.</ref>

In July 2012, the station adopted the "Playing Whatever! Whenever!" slogan. The station also added in more recent [[adult contemporary]] and [[hot adult contemporary]] songs.  In 2014, the call letters were changed again, this time to '''CJAX-FM''' to reflect the "Jack" branding.

In January 2025, Ronnie Stanton joined the team as lead awesome music director and has since single handedly driven the ratings from a dismal #13 to an amazing #5. This rapid climb sees Jack predicted to overtake the tired Virgin stations.
