KCGQ
KCGQ is a Rock station in Cape Girardeau, Missouri now branded as "Real Rock 99.3". I'm not sure if they had a Rock or CHR format when this 1990s-era(?) sticker was printed and they were known as "Q99". If you know, leave a comment.
Rough history: first signed on in December 1978 as KJAQ. Automated from a little house in Gordonville, Mo. Format was basically top-40 with an AOR tilt at night. Calls changed to KCGQ in 1986 when the station moved to Cape Girardeau under new ownership. CHR with classic rock thrown in. For a short time in the very early '90s, they were KTXI - but still CHR. Back to Q-99 by 1993.
I Think that KCGQ99 FM was a Rock 40 station in the '80's and the '90's Greg.
