KKZQ is a commercial radio station in Tehachapi, California, broadcasting to the Lancaster, California area on 100.1 FM. KKZQ leases space on KSRY's tower.
History
KKZQ signed on in 2001 as Rhythmic Oldies Mojo 100.1 FM.
In 2002, KKZQ flipped to Soft AC as The Breeze 100.1, formatted very similarly to the already well established KOST 103.5 FM in Los Angeles (which could be received in the Antelope Valley).
In 2003, KKZQ flipped to its current format as Modern Rock The Edge 100.1. The format stuck because there were no other Modern Rock formatted stations audible in the Antelope Valley. Notable on air personalities include comedian Jeff Duran.
