History [edit]
KWYY started out as KYOD, "Coyote Country, the New 104.7", at 104.7 FM in the mid 1990s as a country music station. It was moved to its current location on the FM dial in the late 1990s after being sold by Heart Media to Mountain States Broadcasting. The station was sold to Clear Channel Radio in 1999.[2] Clear Channel sold its Casper stations to GapWest Broadcasting in 2007; GapWest was folded into Townsquare Media on August 13, 2010.[3]
KWYY was recently re-branded as "My Country 955" and is using local DJs, rather than the satellite programing it used previously.
