Radio F-M Media Operations Manager John Austin said Thursday that KQWB Q98 Rock’s move to 105.1 FM next week. Q98’s modern rock format will stay the same, he said, but the move down the dial is part of “fun changes” in the works for the company that took ownership of several stations Monday.

Overall, KFGO 790 AM continues to reign supreme among Fargo listeners, commanding a 15.5 share – up from 15.2 in the fall and well above nearest competitor WDAY-FM Y94, a Top 40 station that had a 10.7 share.
Spring ratings show some shifts in listening habits, especially with country music. KBVB Bob 95, a Radio F-M station, pulled ahead of Midwest Communications-owned KVOX Froggy 99.9 with respective shares of 8.6 and 8.2 for the No. 3 and No. 4 positions. The two country stations both had shares of 8.3 last fall.
He said Radio F-M Media has plenty of big changes planned other than Q98’s move to 105.1 that’s “clearing the deck on 98.7 for something exciting.” But he said listeners will have to wait for more details.
He didn’t offer any new hints about another big change for the company – the future home of popular morning show hosts Jesse and Amanda with Pike, who aired their last show July 31 on Froggy 99.9 before the station moved to Midwest Communications.
Froggy 99.9 launched its new morning show with hosts Shawn and Mandy on Monday.
