WRQX





WRQX started out as an Album Oriented Rock station in Washington, DC circa the late 1970s.  A switch to Top-40 as "Q107" took place in 1979.  WRQX is now a Hot AC station branded as "DC's 107.3"

Did you catch the Q107 bumper sticker on the phone booth in St Elmo's Fire?

Just watched St Elmo's Fire for the first time in ages and saw the Q107 sticker in the bar. I looked up locations and it seems it wasn't shot in Toronto. Is there a story behind this? Is there ANOTHER Q in that area? A big fan of the station who happened to have a sticker?

Just came across this post while I was searching for a still shot from the movie.

The Q107 bumper sticker was for WRQX FM 107.3 which was one of the two dominant pop radio stations in the DC area in the 80s (the other being WAVA FM 105.1).
