From September 1995 through December 31, 2006, KCQQ was the home of the top-rated local morning duo Dwyer and Michaels. At the beginning of 2007, it was announced that the two hosts would return to rival station WXLP in July, where they previously had hosted a morning show.
Clear Channel sued Dwyer and Michaels, alleging that they had violated a non-compete clause in their contract. The judge ruled in favor of the duo.
