History
KHYY-FM first began broadcasting in November 2008.[4] The station is licensed to Minatare, Nebraska, and was originally owned by Armada Media before being traded to Legacy Broadcasting in 2013.[5]
On November 1, 2019, the station underwent a significant rebranding after being acquired by the Nebraska Rural Radio Association (NRRA). The "Classic Country" format previously found on a subchannel of KNEB-FM was moved to KHYY, and the station began branding itself as "The Trail".[6]
For most of its early history, the station operated on 106.9 MHz. However, as part of a technical realignment to improve coverage, the station moved to its current frequency of 107.3 MHz. [7] In August 2022, the station's original transmitter building was destroyed by a fire, and the 280-foot tower site west of Scottsbluff subsequently collapsed during a high-wind event in 2024.[8] Operations were moved to a consolidated tower site to maintain service.
