History.
KHTQ, whose moniker is "Rock 94 & a 1/2", has been offering a current-based mix of today's cutting-edge Rock. Modern Rock and Heavy metal hits since their flip from Adult Top 40 in 1998. As a top 40 station, KHTQ had a very adult lean, as Spokane did not have any hot AC stations at the time. KHTQ competed with very successful "93 Zoo FM", which would later become owned by the same company. At that time, Zoo FM played a pop/rhythmic hybrid presentation, which gave KHTQ the station for adult audiences. After changing formats, "Rock 94 & a 1/2" originally aired a rock/alternative hybrid, which was common among rock stations at the time. While playing bands such as Korn, Limp Bizkit, Sevendust, Slipknot and other new metal acts. They occasionally played acts like AC/DC and Ozzy Osbourne, but mostly classic metal to distance themselves from 105.7 the Peak, which also mixed in harder alternative music.
It is also Spokane's affiliate of the Seattle Seahawks radio network.
