History
On December 18, 2013, the then-KFUT changed their format from Spanish oldies to sports, branded as "Fox Sports 1270" in reflection of its Fox Sports Radio affiliation.[1] The station changed to the call sign KFSQ on December 19, 2013, and then to KVGH on February 23, 2016. From April 2016 to January 31, 2017, KVGH was simulcasting a classic hits format with its sister station KVGH-FM (105.1). In November 2016, KVGH rebranded as "Valley 106.5", using the frequency of FM translator K293CL 106.5 FM Thousand Palms.
On December 26, 2018, KVGH changed its format from classic hits to LGBT oriented programming, under the new call sign KGAY.[2] It was owned by Sunnylands Broadcasting LLC, and operated under an LMA agreement with QChella Media, a non-profit formed to serve the LGBTQ community.
The non-profit was dissolved in 2020, and Sunnylands took over operation until the sale to KGAY PSP on December 31, 2021.
On March 4, 2024, KGAY began simulcasting on KKCM 92.1 FM Thermal.[3]
On January 30, 2025, the station's call sign was changed back to KFSQ.[4] and its format reverted to sports. The 106.5 translator (K293CL) was reassigned to the HD2 subchannel of KMEE Palm Desert, which became the primary signal for the KGAY music format.[5]
