WGQR - WBLA - AM 1440 - Elizabethtown, NC

WGQR signed on in 1990 with an oldies format[1] and was known as "Solid Gold 105.7[2]." In 1993, Sound Business, which was 50 percent owned by Arthur DeBerry and Associates, owned WGQR and WBLA (AM). Lee Hauser, who owned the other 50 percent of Sound Business and served as its ... See more president, began managing WJSK and WAGR in Lumberton, North Carolina when the DeBerry company bought those stations. Morning host Dan Hester, who had worked at WWAY, replaced Hauser as station manager for WGQR and WBLA[3]. WGQR and WBLA both aired the Bladen County high school football game of the week[4]. In 2004, Beasley Broadcasting tried to buy the stations, but the Federal Communications Commission disallowed the purchase because Beasley would own too many stations in the market.
