KQUT-LP (100.3 FM) is a low-power FM radio station in St. George, Utah, United States. It is owned by Utah Local Radio and leased to Utah Tech University, which operates it as a companion to university-owned KUTU (91.3 FM).[2]
History
[edit | edit source]The station went on the air as KTIM-LP on September 26, 2006, owned and operated by Wastecon Environmental Inc., a non-profit 501c3 environmental education organization.[3]
On March 28, 2011, it was reported to the FCC that the station had gone silent for reasons unknown.[4]
The station changed its call sign to KDXI-LP on February 26, 2015. The station went silent at that time to move its transmitter to Webb Hill. However, there was related infighting and a schism on Wastecon's board, including the possible replacement of the board without its knowledge; the president of Wastecon noted that he planned to relocate the station to Dixie State University.[5]
Wastecon sold the station to Utah Local Radio effective August 30, 2016, for $2,500, the value of the station's equipment. In 2017, Utah Local Radio entered into a 10-year lease with Dixie State University, now Utah Tech University—owner of KUTU (91.3 FM)—to provide operating functions and allow for some student management; the format changed to a mix of classical and jazz music.[6] The call sign changed to KQUT-LP on June 29, 2022, in advance of the renaming of Dixie State to Utah Tech on July 1.
