KSQT (89.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a variety format. Licensed to Prunedale, California, United States, the station is owned by Natural Bridges Media.
Prunedale Educational Association announced it would be swapping the then-KLVM and its five translators to Educational Media Foundation (EMF) for KARW Salinas.[2][3] The transaction was consummated on December 19, 2017. EMF changed the station's call sign to KNVM on January 22, 2018. In 2019, EMF flipped KNVM to its Radio Nueva Vida programming.
On February 5, 2023, Natural Bridges Media, owner of KSQDinSanta Cruz, California, announced that it would acquire KNVM 89.7 FM and the 89.5 K208GE translator in Monterey from EMF. The sale closed on June 8, 2023, and on June 17, KNVM flipped to a simulcast of KSQD in order to reach the Monterey-Salinas area, which is poorly covered by the original KSQD signal. The station changed its callsign to KSQT on June 24, 2023.[4][5]
