ROQ CLT is a tribute to Charlotte's original FM rock station. From the early 70's to the mid 80's, \"the Q\" was the only rock n roll on the radio. ROQ CLT has the same look, sound and feel as the original. You may even hear some of the same DJs on the air. Now, once again, Carolinians can proudly say, \"I Q in My Car.\"
