The station began as a construction permit in 2006. The station received its license to cover on June 5, 2009. It has been a country station its entire life.[4]
In 2017, the FCC found that several stations owned by Cochise Broadcasting were silent, including KWYX. KWYX along with several others were agreed upon to be divested. The stations would've been converted to non-commercial status.[5] Several of the stations in the decision were donated to the University of Wyoming. Cochise was able to keep its Casper stations.[6]
The station transmitter is located on Casper Mountain, south of the city of Casper.[7]
