WDRQ is the callsign for the former Detroit, Michigan (USA) FM radio station 93.1 DRQ. The image shown is of WDRQ's most recent logo.

History

WDRQ, most recently known by the slogan "DETROIT'S #1 HIT MUSIC STATION - 93.1 DRQ," came to Detroit in 1972 as Detroit's first FM talk radio station. Soon after WDRQ moved to become a top 40 station, until 1985 when it was replaced by WLTI "93.1 The Light FM." In 1996, WDRQ returned as a contemporary hit music station and remained so for 9 long years. Due to poor ratings, at 1 PM EST on April 1st, 2005, ABC Radio (who owns WDRQ and the 93.1 FM FCC broadcasting license) abruptly pulled WDRQ off the air. This was no April fools joke. ABC Radio replaced WDRQ with "93.1 DOUG fm - We Play... EVERYTHING!" See: 93.1 DOUG fm
