History
The station was assigned the call sign KDHL-FM on December 3, 1979. On September 1, 1987, the station changed its call sign to KOFN, and on November 1, 1988, to the current KQCL.[3]
On August 30, 2013, a deal was announced in which Townsquare Media would acquire 53 Cumulus stations, including KQCL, for $238 million. The deal was part of Cumulus' acquisition of Dial Global; Townsquare and Dial Global were both controlled by Oaktree Capital Management.[4][5] The sale to Townsquare was completed on November 14, 2013.[6]

gollark: They do have to unlockdown at some point and probably quite soon. The question isn't really how many people could have died without lockdown in place, it's how many could have died who wouldn't have later anyway.
gollark: I'm not sure about that.
gollark: It *could* still happen *at some point*, lockdown or not.
gollark: I don't think we even have some sort of contact tracing app available yet.
