Nashville Radio: WQZQ Launches Classic Hits Format

After almost a week of playing "Macarena" nonstop, WQZQ 830 AM / 93.3 W227DC T-FM takes on its new role Friday as 93.3 Classic Hits.

"Anyone who listens to '70s and '80s music will love 93.3FM or (WQZQ) 830AM," Cromwell Group, Inc. general manager Jana Hampton said in a prepared statement.

Hampton manages the company's local markets, including 102.9 The BUZZ, 102.5 The GAME, 94.9 GAME2 and 102.1 The LIGHT.

The program kicks off with the national anthem, which will play daily at noon to honor military and emergency responders. Listeners will also hear weather and traffic updates during rush hour time periods, and local information throughout the day.

WQZQ 830 AM (2kw-Daytime only)

While WQZQ-AM is a 2 Kw daytimer based in Goodlettsville, 93.3 is a new frequency to the Nashville area. According to RadioInsight, the former 96.1 W241BU Charleston IL is now W227DC and is paired with 830 WQZQ Goodlettsville via the AM Revitalization Waiver. The translator is operating with 250 watts from the WSMV-TV tower just west of Nashville.
