Listening to the toh id for MOViN997, St John really emphasizes the letter Q in their call letters (kmv Q )

At least it is not the long rumored "Q-102"! LOL!

You do not know just how disappointed I will be if this happens. Oh the humanity!!

Q100? Ironically, the CHR in Atlanta "Q100" is also on 99.7.

That's just the way Jeff does his reads, with the final syllable extended and descending to a growl. I wouldn't make too much of it.

How will this affect Q100?

(Atlanta board joke...)

I've always thought there should be a way to brand a radio station as "4-Q"...but I can't think of a frequency that would work for.

Are there any SF radio stations that round off the frequency anymore? I mean I remember, "Jive 95 @ 94.9" and "X-100 @ 99.7" but I don't think radio stations do that anymore. It is more digital with a "Point This" or a "Dot That".

Well...technically, both 106/KMEL and Live 105 round off, but they round down, which is easier for listeners to figure out. I don't think any stations in the Bay Area round up anymore. Supposedly, listener confusion about dial position was a problem for X-100, though it doesn't seem to bother listeners of Power 106 (105.9) in LA.

But KMEL is located at 106.1 & KITS is located at 105.3 so technically they are on that number. I was thinking something more like the end frequency, especially the ones at ".7" & ".9" KSEG-96.9 Sacramento used to be "97 KROY", KMRQ-96.7 Manteca used to be KSJQ-"Q-97". In the bay area, 98.9, used to be known as FM 99. and KXXX-99.7 was X-100. That is what I mean't.
