History
[
edit
]
KQFX began broadcasting as KBBB-FM in 1975 and changed to KDKQ on January 2, 1979. On December 1, 1984, the station changed its call sign to
KDXR
, then again on April 13, 1992, to the current KQFX.

On April 15, 2017, with the announced sale of KQFX from Tejas Broadcasting to Viva Media, the station's
La Caliente
format moved to
KZIP
, and the station began
stunting
with a series of random formats. On May 1, 2017, the station flipped to a rhythmic-leaning
hot adult contemporary
format as
Wild 104.3
, with a focus on current music and recurrent "party hits" from the 1990s and 2000s. Tommy the Hacker moved from
KXSS-FM
to host the station's new morning show.

On July 31, 2018, KQFX flipped back to a
regional Mexican
format as
La Poderosa 96.1 & 104.3
, in simulcast with
KBEX
. The flip, however, occurred during a live remote by Tommy the Hacker and morning co-host Angel Dee, promoting a sock donation drive at a local
Salvation Army
branch. The hosts were caught off-guard by the flip, which they were informed of via text messages.
