Home for Country Music since 1980, KKAQ provides the area 24-hours a day of Real County! Real County combines older classic Country hits with newer songs by traditional-sounding Country Artists. A format that appeals to long-time Country fans and new listeners alike. The artists and sounds that made Country music what it is today, along with a dose of local news, sports and weather; and coverage of Thief River Falls and Northland Community and Technical College sports teams, which make KKAQ a constant companion in the "North County."
