WKQI (95.5 FM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Detroit, Michigan, featuring a top 40 (CHR) format known as "Channel 955", pronounced "nine-five-five". Owned by iHeartMedia, the station serves Metro Detroit and much of Southeast Michigan and southwestern portions of Ontario, including Windsor. The station's studios are located in Farmington Hills, while the transmitter is located in Oak Park, Michigan, on 10 Mile Road near Greenfield Road. In addition to a standard analog transmission, WKQI broadcasts over HD Radio using the in-band on-channel standard, and is available online via iHeartRadio.
At 100,000 watts ERP, WKQI operates as a "grandfathered superpower" FM station. According to the FCC, this same setup would be allotted only 50,000 watts ERP if newly licensed today. [3]
