KXQQ-FM began in 1982 with the call letters KMZQ. KMZQ went through many changes over its 12-year run. KMZQ was known as "Q-100" and "Klassy 100." From 1995 to 2005, it was known as "Lite 100.5 FM." The first on-air personality was Ron Kirsh. Ron is still heard on the Las Vegas airwaves on KJUL.
On June 24, 2005, at 2 PM, after playing "Leaving Las Vegas" by Sheryl Crow, KMZQ began stunting with Christmas music; 45 minutes later, the stunt shifted to movie theme songs with the sound of a Roulette wheel in between. At 3 PM, the stunt ends with voiceover artist Howard Cogan asking to "please cut the cheesy Roulette wheel sound effect". Shortly thereafter, Lite 100.5 became Jack FM, with a variety hits format. The call letters were quickly changed to KKJJ. The first song on "Jack FM" was The Flying Lizards' cover of "Money (That's What I Want)". KMZQ-FM's call letters now belong to FM 99.3 in Payson, Arizona. However, KMZQ-AM airs on AM-670 in Las Vegas, which is a simulcast of KMZQ-FM in Payson.
