About 590 KQNT
590 KQNT is a news and talk radio station licensed to Spokane, Washington, in the United States. It carries a schedule built mostly around nationally syndicated talk programming, with national and world news headlines at the top of many hours.
The station is owned by iHeartMedia and broadcasts at 590 kHz AM with 5,000 watts. Its history goes back to 1922, and it has used the call signs KHQ, KLSN and KAQQ before becoming KQNT. The studios are in Spokane and the transmitter is in Spokane Valley. The programming is in English and is aimed at listeners in the Spokane area and the Inland Northwest who want conversation about politics, current events and public affairs. As an iHeartMedia talk station, much of the lineup comes from national syndicators, so the editorial voice reflects those hosts rather than a purely local newsroom. Weekend hours include specialty shows on topics such as money, health and home. Exact show times change over time, so check the station's website for the current schedule.
This stream is the station's iHeartRadio feed, delivered as AAC audio at roughly 48 kbps in mono, suitable for spoken-word listening on mobile connections.
