[edit] History

KQXL, which signed on as a Mainstream Urban in the early 1980s and was originally at 106.3 until the late 1980s, began its evolution into its current format in 1997 after it was paired with former competitor WEMX-FM.

[edit] Programming

In addition to the R&B and Classic Soul featured as part of the format, KQXL carries two nationally syndicated shows: Tom Joyner In the Mornings and Love, Lust and Lies with Michael Baisden.
