A Very Unusual Radio Station

KZQX has the distinction of being one of the first five Low Power FM stations to be licensed by the FCC in Texas.  We signed on the air September 18, 2002.

We are licensed to Chalk Hill Educational Media, Inc, a 501(c)(3) not for profit Texas Corporation.

There are no paid employees.  Everyone you hear and all the folks behind the scenes are volunteers.  Without their help, we wouldn't be here.

We are supported by sponsors who underwrite our programming, as well as by donations from listeners and friends who think this kind of radio needs to be on the air. 

There is no particular agenda on the part of the station, other than to be good neighbors who are active in the community.  We are however, big fans of music and music education.  We think good music is important to the quality of life.

While we recognize that there are many genres of music, some are undoubtedly more significant than others.  There is life beyond Rap, Hip-Hop and Three Chord Country. If we help demonstrate that to people who haven't had the opportunity to sample this wonderful music and the great performers who brought it to you, then we've done our job.

We're always happy to hear from our listeners.  Your suggestions and comments are always welcome.

Are Now Playing on Unforgettable QX-FM

Attention AOL Users!

AOL's media player will not decode our web stream if you have their pop up blocker turned on. We're not sure why.  If you  find that you get an error message every time you try to listen to us while logged on to AOL, you can try turning off the pop up blocker.  We do not have pop ups on our web site..

If you don't want to turn it off,  never fear, you can still enjoy America's Original Classics even with an AOL connection.  Here's How:

You will first need to download and install either WinAmp, Real Player or Windows Media Player 9 or 10 (no other Windows Media Player versions will work with our stream).  Below are links to each one.  We recommend WinAmp.  You can download the free version, and for our purposes the "Lite" version works fine.  If you have a slow Internet connection, the "Lite" version will not take all day to download.  When WinAmp asks you for your email address, you do not have to give it to them, unless you want to.  You can just leave that information blank.  We like that.

      RealOne Player Trial      Windows Media 9 Series Player

There are two ways to get going...

The simplest way is to disable AOL's default player after you have downloaded one of the players listed above.

  • To do that, launch AOL (if you are looking at this, you've probably already done that)
  • At the top of your screen click on "Settings." 
  • A box will open.  Click on "Preferences."
  • A new box will open.  Click on "Multi Media."
  • In the next box, un-check the Player Preferences box that says "Use the AOL Media Player for supported file types." 
  • Click on "Save."

That's it.  Go back to our home page.  Click on the appropriate link for the player you installed and enjoy America's Original Classics.

There is another way that doesn't disable anything:

  • 1.  Connect to the Internet via AOL, just like you always do.
  • 2.  Once you have logged on, minimize the AOL screen so you can see your desktop.  Do not log off of AOL.
  • 3.  Click on your Internet Explorer IconIf you don't have that on your desktop, click on the start button, then click on "Programs."   It should be there.  It may even pop up from "Start."  We suggest placing a shortcut to it on your desktop by right  clicking on it, clicking on "send to" and clicking on "Desktop - Create Shortcut."  This will make it easier to find in the future.
  • 4. Once you have opened Internet Explorer, enter www.kzqx.com  in the Address Box (at the top of the page)
  • 5.  Once you have returned to our web site,  click on the link that is appropriate for the type player you have installed.  If you took our advice and used WinAmp or Real player, that's a picture of the old radio.  If you used Windows Media Player 9, that's the picture of the billboard a little farther down the page.
  • 6.  In a few seconds, you'll be listening to one of the worlds best radio stations. 

Now, that wasn't so bad, was it?
