X, meet V

Don Day | December 14, 2009

Alternative Music Now V99.1 FMChowder spotted this in comments – and after a quick listen and scan of the website, it appears KQLZ/99.1 The Virus is changing up its imaging.

Liners are now refering to the station as “The All New V-99.1 Alternative Music Now” – but the “Virus” name is still in at least equal rotation.

When the station launched earlier this year, some noted the similarity to the Opie & Anthony-helmed XM talk station “The Virus.”

The other “alternative” station in the market uses mono-letter name – KQXR/100.3 The X.

    The X officially flipped to Active Rock last year.

    Hey, thanks for posting this Don! I wasn’t (and I’m still not) sure if it was permanent or just an alternate version of the logo… I figured I should note it anyways.
