KQMX (105.7 MHz) is a commercial radio station licensed to Lost Hills, California, United States, and serving the Bakersfield metropolitan area. KQMX is owned by Juan Ayala's Agri Care Orchards Inc. of Tulare. It carries a Grupera and Regional Mexican format known as "Qué Buena 105.7."
In June 2006, Magnolia Radio received a construction permit to build a new FM station on 99.5 in Lost Hills. The permit was then sold to Deportes y Musíca. The station remained unbuilt until 2010, when Grupo Multimedia bought the construction permits for KQMX and KRPH near Phoenix, Arizona.
For nearly a full year, from February 18, 2011, until the following February, KQMX was silent, pending a relaunch of the station by Grupo Multimedia/Deportes y Música. The station came back on the air on February 15, 2012.
Grupo Multimedia sold KQMX to Alfonso De Alba for $420,000, effective December 30, 2021. In May 2025, Alfonso De Alba, through licensee The De Alba Family Trust of 2000, sold KQMX to Juan Ayala's Agri Care Orchards Inc. for $900,000 plus $100,000 of advertising time[2]
