This station's programming is also simulcast on KEMP (99.3 FM) in Payson, Arizona. That station claims to broadcast to the Phoenix radio market, although there is a translator station on 99.3 in Phoenix, blocking KEMP within city limits. KEMP is powered at 17,000 watts and covers a region northeast of Phoenix and southeast of Flagstaff, Arizona.

KVGQ was assigned its call sign by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on November 13, 2009.[1]

Until its format switch on June 24, 2013, the station broadcast an adult hits format specializing in seldom heard pop and rock songs.

In 2017, the station tweaked its format from hot AC to adult CHR by having a more current-intensive playlist.

Booster station

KVGQ programming is also carried by a booster station to extend or improve the coverage area of the station.

gollark: Even if it actually *is* true that living in an authoritarian regime is similar to living in... well, I guess the comparison is just a "relatively standard reasonably free Western country" or something... for the average non-politically-active person (which is probably the case for *some* authoritarian regimes), that doesn't really make authoritarian regimes okay.
gollark: I mean, authoritarian regimes... aren't very good, I think, even if they can *sometimes* produce good outcomes.
