CKSH-DT (branded on-air as ICI Estrie) is the Ici Radio-Canada Télé owned-and-operated television station, serving the Estrie region of the Canadian province of Quebec that is licensed to Sherbrooke. It broadcasts a high-definition digital signal on VHF channel 9 from a transmitter in Orford.
Owned by Société Radio-Canada, its studios are located on King St. in Sherbrooke. This station can also be seen on Vidéotron channel 10 and in high definition on digital channel 602. This station is also available on Bell TV channel 108 and in high definition on channel 1820.
The station first signed on September 19, 1974. As a privately owned station, CKSH basically functioned as a semi-satellite of CBFT in Montreal due to not having alternative non-network sources of programming available. The station had been owned directly by Cogeco prior to the latter's majority acquisition of TQS (now V), to which Cogeco contributed its existing local stations. Radio-Canada took editorial control of the station's news programming in 2002, although it currently shares a studio with former TQS sister station CFKS-DT.
CKSH is seen on cable television systems throughout New England, serving the French American community. It serves as a vital link to the Québécois culture in these communities.
