KQHN (97.3 FM, "Mix 97.3") is an adult contemporary music formatted radio station licensed to Magnolia, Arkansas, and serving the greater Shreveport, Louisiana, area.
The station is owned by Cumulus Media and broadcasts from the Louisiana Boardwalk shopping center in Bossier City, Louisiana, along with sister stations KRMD, KRMD-FM, KMJJ, and KVMA.
The station was assigned the KQHN call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on April 7, 2005.[1]
[edit] History
KQHN was originally licensed to Magnolia, Arkansas on 107.9 MHz.[2] Cumulus Media bought the station and tried to move the station into the Shreveport market, by moving the station's city of license to Oil City, Louisiana. However the station's transmitter on 107.9 MHz from its new location caused interference with air traffic control at Barksdale Air Force Base and was forced off the air by the military and FCC. Ultimately the station's frequency was moved to 97.3 MHz and the city of license is currently being moved to Waskom,Texas. [3]
The station has been operating off a construction permit on their current frequency of 97.3 since 2006 possibly due to the original issues on the original move grant to Oil City,Louisiana
