CJCO-TV, branded as OMNI Calgary, is a television station in Calgary, Alberta. The station is owned by Rogers Communications, and broadcasts a multicultural programming format as part of Rogers' Omni Television system. It broadcasts its analog signal on channel 38.
The station was licensed by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission on June 8, 2007, and it launched on September 15, 2008. The station was originally assigned the call sign CHXC by Industry Canada, but this was changed to CJCO in February 2008.
Although the station's primary focus is multicultural programming, like the other Omni stations across the country, the stations airs a large amount of syndicated American shows such as The Simpsons and The King of Queens.
Newscasts
Omni Alberta produces three nightly television newscasts aimed at the Cantonese, Mandarin, and South Asian communities across the province.

Digital television and high definition
As of January 2009, CJCO-TV has not yet begun broadcasting in digital.
After the analog television shutdown and digital conversion, which takes place on August 31, 2011 , CJCO-TV is required to begin digital broadcasts on its current assigned and analog channel number, 38. However, through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers will display CJCO-TV's virtual channel as 38.1.
