    WZQK is a radio station licensed to Flowood, Mississippi.

    From November 9, 1992 until September 30, 2020, the station's call sign was WPBQ.[1] Its previous format was urban variety, a blend of contemporary hip-hop, urban gospel, and even some regional Mexican.

    On October 9, 2020 WZQK debuted with classic country.

    On July 12, 2021 WZQK began simulcasting WJMF-LP, in preparation for WJMF-LP's inevitable demise.

    Since July 14, 2021 WZQK's format has been classic hits.

    History[edit]

    The station went on the air in 1996 as WPBQ. It was sold by its original owners, PBD Corporation, to TalkQ Corporation in 2003 for $42,500.[2] TalkQ owned the station until selling to the present licensees in 2016.[3]
