in august 2004, energy radio changed formats to its current adult top 40 format to go up against adult contemporary station ciqm-fm and adult hits station chst-fm. the flip to hot ac was caused by previous hot ac station chst-fm flipping to its current bob fm format in july 2003. in august 2005, the energy radio brand was folded completely, and cfhk rebranded as "103-1 fresh fm", due to the fact it could match the current cfhk calls. the morning program featuring "d, mindy & gord" moved from co-owned cfpl-fm (fm96) to launch the new station format. at the same time cfhk-fm was brought out by canwest.
