CHML began operations in 1927 as a response to censorship of political discussions by Hamilton's first radio station, CKOC. The original owners were Maple Leaf Radio Company, and the "HML" in the callsign stood for "Hamilton Maple Leaf". Broadcaster Ken Soble took over CHML in 1944.[1] Shortly after Soble's death, his estate sold the station to Western Broadcasting, later known as Western International Communications. Corus took over Western's radio assets in 1999.

The station has several local daily talk show hosts. Mornings with Bob Bratina and Shiona Thompson, Bill Kelly, Jamie West and Scott Thompson in late afternoons, while also airing the nationally syndicated Adler On Line with Charles Adler, and "The Roy Green Show" with Roy Green on the weekends. CHML is the Hamilton Tiger-Cats' flagship radio station and an affiliate of the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Blue Jays radio networks. In 2007 the station annonced a multi year partnership to broadcast McMaster Univerity Football games.

American radio programmes aired on CHML include Dr. Joy Browne and The Jim Rome Show.

CHML airs old time radio programs from the 1940s and 1950s nightly. These shows feature classic NBC and CBS Radio programs.
