Duce Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 How long have they been the New 93Q now? When do they become just 93Q or the Old 93Q? Why not be New Country 93Q or something that makes more sense than calling themselves "new" year after year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Cinnamon Roll Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 They have been new since about 1992.They switched from top 40 93Q in late 1991 I think to 92.9 Easy Country and changed to The New 93Q soon after.They will probably call themselve The New 93Q for as long as they are around.

Astro Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I wondered the same thing This is the station I listen to while I'm at work and for years I've heard them continue to call themselves "new". I really miss KIKK... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
editor Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 There's a limit on how long consumer goods can be labeled "new" but radio companies tend to ignore this limit. I know a radio station that was calling itself "The New Mix" for five years. I don't know if it ever dropped the "new" part since I moved to another city.

HoustonianInColorado Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 i miss the old 93Q when john lander was still there and they weren't country.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>93Q was once KYND, an elevator music station, affiliated with the old 790 KULF (previously KTHT). If I recall correctly, Harte Hanks sold the pair to Gannett, who flipped them to 79Q (AM) KKBQ and started the Q-Zoo format in Houston. Then KYND became 93Q KKBQ-FM. I worked at KULF at the time just before the change.Along those lines, does anyone else remember the morning team of London & Engleman on KULF?

RedScare Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 It would be "new" if I ever listened to it. We have ruined so many things in this country with our insistence on making everything a conglomerate. Radio may be the worst of all.
