KPXQ
KPXQ (1360 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station, airing a Christian talk and teaching radio format. It is licensed to Glendale, Arizona, and serves the Phoenix metropolitan area. It is owned by Salem Media Group with studios on East Camelback Road in Phoenix.
By day, KPXQ is powered at 50,000 watts non-directional, the highest output for commercial AM stations. But to protect other stations on 1360 AM from interference, at night it reduces power to 500 watts and uses a directional antenna. The transmitter is on also on Camelback Road, but at a different location near North 73rd Avenue.
KPXQ is a brokered programming station. Hosts buy time on the station and may use their shows to seek donations to their ministries.
National programs include Focus on the Family with Jim Daly, Turning Point with David Jeremiah, Through the Bible with J. Vernon McGee, Truth for Life with Alistair Begg, Grace to You with John MacArthur, Insight for Living with Chuck Swindoll, In Touch Ministries with Charles Stanley and Love Worth Finding with Adrian Rogers.
Two secular talk shows are heard, hosted by Jay Sekulow and Eric Metaxas. Updates are supplied by SRN News.
KPXQ signed on in 1947. The original call sign was KRUX and it was owned by Gene Burke Brophy. The studios were in the historic Hotel Westward Ho.
At first, the station broadcast on 1340 kHz. KRUX moved to 1360 in 1957 after being denied a frequency change to 910 kHz ten years prior.
From the late 1950s until the 1970s, KRUX was a major Top 40 station in Phoenix. During its heyday, it competed head to head with KRIZ 1230 AM for Top 40 radio dominance in Phoenix. KRUX and KRIZ went back and forth in the ratings game before both stations succumbed to the more popular FM stations by the late 1970s.
