Gooderham & Worts opened an experimental [[shortwave radio]] station in April 1930 with the call letters '''VE9GW'''. Listed as being located at [[Bowmanville, Ontario|Bowmanville]], [[Ontario]], at CKGW's transmitter site, it relayed CKGW programming on 6095&nbsp;kHz to northern Ontario, northern [[Manitoba]] and the [[Canadian Arctic]]. While mostly relaying programming from CKGW, it would also air a regular specialty programme for [[DXing|DX]]ers in the ''International Short Wave Club''. After switching to a new transmitter in the winter of 1930-1931, the station boosted its power to 200 watts from 25 Watts and it could be received as far away as [[Europe]], [[South Africa]], and [[New Zealand]] on either 6.095 or 11.81&nbsp;MHz, and would later broadcast on 24.38&nbsp;MHz, as well. In 1932, the station's power increased to 500 watts. From 1933 to 1936, CKGW and VE9GW were leased from Gooderham & Worts by the [[Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission]], which used the station as one of the broadcasters of ''[[CBC North#Northern Messenger|Northern Messenger]]'', a mailbag programme aimed at listeners in the Far North, which the CBC would continue to air into the 1970s. CKGW became CRCT and, in 1935, VE9GW's call letters changed to '''CRCX'''. In 1937, both stations were purchased by the new Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. CRCT became CBL and CRCX was closed down in 1938. The station mostly broadcast on 6.095&nbsp;MHz but, at various times, transmitted on 11.81 or 24.38&nbsp;MHz.<ref>{{cite news |title=Canadian Experimental Station VE9GW |url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Site-Early-Radio/Archive-World-Radio/World-Radio-1932-08-26-S-OCR-OCR-Page-0018.pdf |access-date=September 18, 2020 |work=World-Radio |date=August 26, 1932}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Apex Radio Stations Worldwide |work=Wavescan |publisher=Adventist World Radio |date=August 16, 2009}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=RADIO NEWS FOR NOVEMBER, 1933 |url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Site-Early-Radio/Archive-Radio-News-IDX/IDX/30s/33/Radio-News-1933-11-R-OCR-Page-0030.pdf |website=worldradiohistory.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last1=Berg |first1=Jerome S. |title=The Early Shortwave Stations: A Broadcasting History Through 1945 |date=2013 |publisher=McFarland |isbn=978-0786474110 |pages=37, 76, 93, 95, 96, 120, 147, 166, 286 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XSWXAAAAQBAJ&q=VE9GW+%5C&pg=PA95 |access-date=September 18, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=The Canadian Northern Messenger Service |url=http://www.ontheshortwaves.com/Wavescan/wavescan180304.html |access-date=September 18, 2020 |work=Wavescan |publisher=Adventist World Radio |date=March 4, 2018}}</ref>
