WBQH

Because 1050 AM is a Mexican clear channel frequency reserved for XEG in Monterrey, WBQH reduces power to 41 watts at night to prevent interference.

On February 1, 1960, the WGAY calls were moved to the FM band at 99.5 MHz, while the AM station became WQMR, for "Washington's Quality Music Radio".

Both WQMR and WGAY moved to the World Building, located on Georgia Avenue, just north of the intersection of Maryland Route 410 (East-West-Highway) in Silver Spring, in 1966.

Winton and Chandler sold the station on September 1, 1984, to Greater Media, which in turn ended the simulcast and changed the call letters to WNTR.

The concept was not successful at the time, and Metro Radio then bought the station, and switched WKDL to a Spanish language CHR format in December 1997.

Initially, WFED aired the Associated Press' All News Radio service during the overnight hours, as a complement to Bonneville's main all-news station, WTOP.

While the 1500 facility is a 50,000-watt clear channel station, 1050 must power down to 44 watts at night, effectively limiting its nighttime coverage to Prince George's County.

That June, the simulcast again ceased, and 1050 was leased out to United Media Group, who launched the current regional Mexican format and WBQH callsign.
