History

On September 13, 2018, WQPM changed formats from oldies to classic hits, branded as "Killer Bee Radio".[3]

On December 21, 2019, the station began stunting.[4] On January 1, 2020, the station returned to being known as The Big Q, playing oldies music.

On February 13, 2022, WQPM changed their format from oldies to a simulcast of classic country-formatted KLCI 106.1 FM Elk River, branded as "Bob Total Country".[5] Big Q Radio, however, continues streaming oldies on the internet: Big Q Live.
