KQCO (89.5 FM) was a radio station licensed to serve Esterbrook, Wyoming, United States. The station was owned by Cedar Cove Broadcasting.[1]

History[edit]

The station was assigned the call letters KEZG on February 6, 2008. On July 3, 2008, the station changed its call sign to KGCY; on November 15, 2010, it took its present KQCO call sign.[2] The station filed for a license to cover its construction permit on January 5, 2011;[3] however, on March 23, the station left the air due to problems with its programming source.[4] KQCO returned to the air on March 20, 2012;[5] two days later, it again signed off citing snow and ice damage to the solar power array at its Laramie Peak transmitter site.[6] It again returned on March 20, 2013,[7] but shut down again five days later due to continued repairs to the solar power array.[8]

KQCO's owners surrendered the station's license to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on March 31, 2014; the FCC cancelled the license on April 1, 2014.
