 CKX-TV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CKX is a television station in Brandon, Manitoba affiliated with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
In February 1959, CKX requested MTS to apply to the CBC to extend ther television signals to four additional Manitoba communities — Dauphin, Swan River, The Pas, and Flin Flon.
It is possible that CKX may also do so, however it is currently a CBC affiliate, which would likely force the station to disaffiliate from the CBC (and a repeater of Winnipeg's CBWT would need to be installed in Brandon to provide CBC programming).
