BRIEF STATION HISTORY

Q 90FM was fully automated outside of breakfast.

In June of 1991, Q 90FM closed down and the 90.0MHz frequency was replaced with a simulcast of its sister station, Radio Taranaki.

In December of 1993, 90FM Radio Taranaki was re-branded as Classic Hits 90FM.

In 2014, Classic Hits 90FM was re-branded as The Hits.
