WQZQ (830 AM) is a radio station licensed to Goodlettsville, Tennessee, and serving the Nashville metropolitan area. The station is owned by Winston Communications, Inc. It airs a classic hits radio format, calling itself "Classic Hits 93.3." The dial position is a reference to the WQZQ's FM translator, W227DC in Nashville, which broadcasts at 93.3 MHz.

WQZQ-AM broadcasts at 2000 watts by day but because 830 AM is a clear channel frequency, WQZQ-AM must sign-off at night to protect Class A station WCCO in Minneapolis. WQZQ's FM translator station operates 24 hours a day. WQZQ's offices and studios are on Mufreesboro Pike in Nashville and its transmitter is located off Nesbitt Lane in Nashville.

WQZQ began broadcasting in the 1970s as the FM affiliate of Dickson, Tennessee community-oriented station WDKN. In the 1980s, the signal was upgraded and the station was split off from WDKN, which subsequently acquired another FM affiliate. WQZQ began focusing on the Nashville market with a rock music format, Q-103. This station was the predecessor to current Nashville sports radio station "The Game" 102.5 WPRT-FM.
