KHQN (1480 kHz) is a non-commercial AM radio station licensed to Spanish Fork, Utah, and serving the Utah Valley and the southern suburbs of Salt Lake City. The station's broadcast license is held by SACE Broadcasting Corporation. KHQN has a radio format of Hindu music, chants and discussion, as a service of the Spanish Fork Krishna Temple and the Salt Lake City Krishna Temple.
By day, KHQN transmits with 1,000 watts, using a non-directional antenna. To protect other stations on 1480 kHz from interference, at night it reduces power to 133 watts. The transmitter is on Utah State Route 198 in Salem, near the Spanish Fork Krishna Temple.
The Political Cesspool, a weekly far-right talk radio show founded by Tennessean political activist James Edwards, is broadcast on KHQN. It also simulcasts on the neo-Nazi Stormfront Radio.[2][3]
