WCVQ (107.9 FM, "Q108") is a Fort Campbell, Kentucky-licensed radio station broadcasting a hot adult contemporary format in the Clarksville-Hopkinsville broadcast area. The station is currently owned by Saga Communications under licensee Saga Communications of Tuckessee, LLC, and operates as part of its Five Star Media Group.^[3] and is also broadcasting on HD radio.^[4]

WCVQ studios and offices are co-located with its sister stations in Clarksville, Montgomery County, Tennessee; all of which make up a cluster known as the 5 Star Radio Group, a unit of Saga Communications, Inc. The station's transmitter is located near the junction of US 79/SR 76 and SR 46 in eastern Stewart County just north of Indian Mound.

The station first signed on the air in 1968 as WABD-FM, which at the time was a sister station to the AM station with the same call letters. Under ownership by the Fort Campbell Broadcasting Company, WABD (AM 1370, now WQEZ) was a Top 40-formatted station. In the late 1970s, WABD-FM broadcast an album rock format, while WABD switched to oldies.

On December 13, 1986, the station was sold to Southern Broadcasting, and changed their call letters to the current WCVQ. The station has used the Q-108 branding ever since. Also in December 1986, WCVQ upgraded its signal to a 100,000 watt signal. Its current owner, Saga Communications, purchased the station at some point in the early 2000s. The station's signal has been transmitting from their current 950 feet (290 m) tower ever since.

In 2014, through its HD radio signal, the station launched its HD2 subchannel to serve as a Contemporary Christian station, branded as "Sunny 99.1," which is simulcast over analog low-powered FM translator W256CI, which broadcasts at 99.1 megahertz. The next year, an HD3 subchannel was launched to bring the Classic Country format to the area, which is simulcast over W264CK, at 100.7 megahertz.

WCVQ's primary coverage area is the Clarksville–Hopkinsville metropolitan area, covering the Pennyrile regionofWestern Kentucky and northwestern Middle Tennessee. WCVQ also secondarily covers the Nashville Metropolitan Area as it is considered to be in both the Clarksville and Nashville radio markets.
