WQYK-FM

WQYK-FM (99.5 MHz, "99.5 QYK") is a commercial country music radio station in Tampa, Florida.

WQYK signed on the air in May 1958 as WTCX, a 31,000-watt classical music station and the first Tampa Bay FM to introduce stereo sound.

It originally broadcast from a tiny studio at the transmitter site at 5750 North Haines Road in St. Petersburg, Florida and was owned by Trans-Chord company.

The call letters changed to the current WQYK-FM in 1972, and began its long running country format.

On October 2, 2014, CBS Radio announced that it would trade all of their radio stations located in Charlotte and Tampa (including WQYK), as well as WIP in Philadelphia, to the Beasley Broadcast Group in exchange for 5 stations located in Miami and Philadelphia.
