KATQ (AM)


KATQ is a radio station licensed to serve Plentywood, Montana. The station is owned by Radio International KATQ Broadcast Association and broadcasts two formats, a classic country music format on 1070 Khz AM and translator 107.1 MHz FM and a classic rock format on 100.1 MHz FM. The studios are at 112 Third Avenue East.
The 5000 watt AM daytimer signed-on September 14, 1979 with call letters of KATQ honoring the Plentywood Wildcats, mascot of the local high school. A subsequent owner briefly changed the call letters in the 1980s, but they were returned to KATQ by the Federal Communications Commission on August 1, 1987.
