WAQM-FM in Miami

Audacy is making a major upgrade for Miami Sports outlet WQAM-AM, expanding its coverage to the FM dial at 104.3 FM with a 100,000-watt signal. The move, effective immediately, displaces Alternative WSFS (The Shark) and extends the reach of the station's programming across South Florida while maintaining its presence on 560 AM. The station will operate under the call letters WQAM-FM, pending FCC approval.

WQAM serves as the flagship station for the Miami Heat and University of Miami Hurricanes football and men's basketball. Its lineup includes local sports staples like The Joe Rose Show with Hollywood, Tobin & Leroy, and Hochman, Crowder & Solana.

"Miami's sports fans have an unrivaled passion, and they deserve a destination that matches their energy," said Claudia Menegus, Regional President at Audacy. "By adding this powerful FM signal, we're not just expanding our reach - we're solidifying WQAM's position as the undisputed leader in South Florida sports radio."

The expansion was also welcomed by HEAT leadership. "The increased power and reach of WQAM on FM will bring even more fans, listeners and a younger, more diverse audience to the airwaves to enjoy the Miami HEAT audio experience," said Michael McCullough, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of the Miami HEAT. "HEAT games will now sound better than ever on WQAM on FM."

The weekday lineup for 104.3 WQAM is as follows: "The Joe Rose Show with Hollywood" (6-10am), "Tobin & Leroy" (10am-2pm) "Hochman, Crowder & Solana" (2-6pm).
