A few questions...
I remember KQQK in the mid to late 80s. For me it was an alternative to KKBQ and KRBE and was fairly popular to us hispanics living on the east end. Some of my friends and I also enjoyed listening to the Sunday night heavy metal show, "Queremos Rock". I had stopped listening completely sometime in 1988 and a couple of years later come to find them playing Tejano music. Anyway I recently read that KQQK surrendered their broadcast license in March of 1989 and signed off forever. Then in January of 1990 a new facility signed on at 106.5 and adopted the KQQK calls. Here are my questions:
How did this all play out?
Was there nothing on the air at 106.5FM for those 10 months?
Were both incarnations under the same ownership? (Weren't the Bakers involved with the station at some point).
Did both facilities use the same studios?
Where were they located around that time?
20 questions anybody...
Speaking of the Bakers.... I remember seeing an article in the Houston Post about the station (Tejano by that time) and a photo of Edith in the studio and behind her you could see the KQQK jocks behind the board clowning around, she had this half smile on her face and her expression resembled that of a mother with a house full of rowdy kids. It was kind of funny
