Workers replace radio antenna A crew from Radio Tow- er Co. of Portland replaced an FM antenna on the 400- foot tall KOHU-KQFM ra- dio tower last week. Hermiston’s radio sta- tion The Q FM has moved to a new frequency. The station has changed from 100.1 FM to 93.7 FM after work was completed, due to a frequency reassign- ment by the Federal Com- munications Commission. The AM station, KOHU 1360AM, did not change but was brieÀ y off the air for a while when work on the tower began. The 100.1 FM frequen- cy was taken over by a new radio station out of the Tri-Cities, KQFO, which will be known as 100.1 The Oasis. The new Tri-Cities station is owned by Alexan- dra Communication based in Walla Walla. It plays what it calls adult alterna- tive album music from art- ist like Coldplay, Adele and the Dave Matthews Band. To promote its new fre- quency, The Q is sponsoring a cash giveaway of $937. To enter listeners need to send the new frequency, 93.7 FM, and their name and phone number to The Q by Facebook (KOHU KQFM), email (kqfm@eotnet.net), fax (541-567-6068), mail (PO Box 145 Hermiston) or in person (80404 Cooney Lane in Hermiston). KQFM, The Q plays adult contemporary music, while KOHU plays classic county, local and agricul- ture news and local sports. KOHU and KQFM are owned by Westend Radio LLC.
