KSLQ-FM (104.5 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a hot adult contemporary format. Licensed to Washington, Missouri, United States, the station serves Warren, Franklin, and St. Charles Counties in Missouri, as well as parts of western St. Louis County. The station is currently owned by Y2k, Inc.[1] Brad Hildebrand, the current General Manager, originally worked at KSLQ-FM from 1973 through 1982, and then at KYKY from 1982 through 1990. Brad's brother Lance still works at KYKY, which was known as the original KSLQ from September 1, 1972 until October 1, 1982.
On November 3, 2023, the Federal Communications Commission issued an Order to Pay or to Show Cause for KSLQ-FM to pay delinquent regulatory fees totaling just under $26,000 covering fiscal years 2010 through 2023. Y2k was given sixty days to pay the past due fees or show cause why "these regulatory fees are inapplicable or should otherwise be waived or deferred." The Notice officially constitutes the initiation of a proceeding to revoke the licenses if Y2k fails to respond.[2]
The station plays hot adult contemporary music, mainly from the 1980s to the present.
