KSQQ (96.1 FM) is a world ethnic radio station broadcasting in the Chinese and Portuguese languages. The station is owned by Coyote Communications and licensed to Morgan Hill, California, with a translator, K277BN, in San Martin, California. It serves the greater San Francisco Bay Area from North Santa Clara County to Marin County. Its studios are in San Jose, and it has a transmitter site just south of the city limits.
As the Sunol Grade is reached, KYMX, an adult contemporary station from the Central Valley cuts off KSQQ's signal almost completely. The signal has difficulty reaching the Tri-Valley area because of rough terrain.
KSQQ was first licensed on September 5, 1991.[2]
