HOT 105 is WHQT, an urban adult contemporary radio station broadcasting on 105.1 FM in South Florida. The station is licensed to Coral Gables and serves the wider Miami–Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood market, mixing current R&B with soul and old school favourites. WHQT is part of Cox Media Group's Miami radio operation.
The station's 'Today's R&B and Old School' format combines contemporary R&B with established artists and throwbacks, giving HOT 105 a more adult-focused sound than a mainstream hip-hop or Top 40 station. Its weekday schedule mixes music with personality-led programming, including the nationally syndicated Rickey Smiley Morning Show, local daytime presenters and evening Quiet Storm programming.
HOT 105 has a strong South Florida identity beyond its music. Current programming includes Shelby Rushin in middays, Big Lip during the afternoon, AC Shaw's Legendary Quiet Storm in the evening and a varied weekend schedule covering old school R&B, reggae, gospel and community-focused talk. WHQT also broadcasts digitally using HD Radio, with the separate Joy 105 gospel and inspirational service carried on 105.1 HD2.

- The Rickey Smiley Morning Show: Weekdays from 6am to 10am. Rickey Smiley's nationally syndicated morning show combines comedy and conversation with celebrity interviews, entertainment news, local discussion and regular features including Gary with the Tea.
