106.9 Jams?

[DJ Mo]

I have been locked on 106.9FM in the St. Louis, MO area while visiting, & I can't find anything about this station anywhere. I just know they announce in their sweepers "95.5 HD2 Jams", but nothing on the 106.9FM signal on Radio Locator. They play a mix of freestyle, dance, hip hop, r&b, & pop that I can't hear anywhere else, & most of the songs, I play on my own syndicated radio show. Anyone know who owns this station, or can get any info about this? Thanks in advance!

It's a translator. Radio-locator says it rebroadacasts an AM station, but that's out of date. K295CQ-FM 106.9 MHz - Saint Louis, MO

I read from Boost's mike couchman on facebook the translator is hiring the same thing as 95.5 HD2 until the translator owner can find a buyer... if im remembering the story correctly... the format is a hold over from the old 95.5 from what i read.

Thanks for the info! This translator needs to be bought by the person who owns this station, & be a permanent format. Signal coverage is spotty, but I was still locked on in the car, because of the Jams. If anyone can provide the link for me to stream (if they do stream), that would be awesome!

I have noticed that both the 95.5 HD-2 and 106.9 signals are off the air

It’s sad, I was recently passing through St Louis and I noticed that 95.5 didn’t have an HD2 anymore and the 106.9 translator K295CQ was silent.

It's also strange, a similar format might just be launching on 106.9 in Kansas City MO. Assuming the new owner of K295CH decides to broadcast their HD R&B/soul format on the translator. Probably less hip-hop/freestyle though unless they tweak K103.3 HD2, or just broadcast something new on 106.9 in KC.

Good news, I heard 106.9 in St. Louis back on playing throwbacks! I hope this is similar to what you're looking for.
I can't find a website though.
