KiSS 102.3 — CKY-FM

KiSS 102.3 (CKY-FM) is a commercial local FM radio station based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Broadcasting at 102.3 MHz from a transmitter in Duff Roblin Provincial Park, the station is owned by Rogers Sports & Media and targets adults aged 25–54 with a Hot AC (Hot Adult Contemporary) format. It uses the historic CKY call sign, which dates back to 1923, although the station's continuous broadcasting history began on December 31, 1949.

The station's programming follows a familiar lineup of on-air personalities. Mornings feature "The Roz & Mocha Show", hosted by Roz Weston and Mocha. The hosts mix music with humour and everyday conversations, summed up by their motto: “We don't just play the songs you like; we break down the weird things you actually think about on your drive to work.” Pamela Roz takes over during the daytime, while weekends feature "The Weekend Throwback with Sandra".

The music lineup combines current pop hits with familiar favourites from the 1990s and 2000s. Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars are among the artists regularly featured, alongside Canadian acts such as Drake and Tate McRae, as part of the station's compliance with CRTC Canadian-content requirements.

Based on the latest publicly available Numeris report data as of December 2025 audience measurement reports, the station maintains a strong position in the market, including a second-place ranking among women aged 25–54. Local listeners tune in during their commutes or at work for familiar morning-show personalities and music that works well as a background soundtrack throughout the day.

The station's team has received nominations at the Canadian Music Week Awards, and KiSS 102.3 supports community initiatives across Manitoba. Its main strengths include a strong signal and an established lineup of hosts. On the downside, listeners may notice the repetitive song rotation typical of commercial radio, with tracks returning every few hours, as well as lengthy commercial breaks.
