    History

    [edit]

    KQST signed on the air on May 1, 1984, airing an Easy Listening format including special programs from Jazz and Big Band formats. In 1992, the format was changed to a Hot AC format, but the special programs that were formerly used from its easy listening format still runs during its early Hot AC days for a shorter period of time. The station went a full Top 40 format a shorter time later on.
