KUTQ (102.3 FM, "102.3 Zion Country") is a radio station licensed to La Verkin, Utah. Owned by Redrock Media, it broadcasts a country music format serving the St. George, Utah area.

History

The station was originally licensed to Cohise Broadcasting as KCDC; in 2015, Redrock Media acquired the then-silent station for $375,000.[2][3]

In November 2015, the station began on-air testing, and subsequently launched as New Country Q102.3 with the new calls KUTQ.[4] The station later changed its branding to Coyote 102.3.[5]

On March 31, 2025. KUTQ rebranded as 102.3 Real Country, pivoting from its previous hot country positioning to a gold-based presentation.[5] On April 6, 2026, KUTQ rebranded again as 102.3 Zion Country. This came after sister station KZYN dropped its own "Zion" branding (after Zion National Park) in favor of Jack FM.[6]
