KMCM-FM
The station began broadcasting November 30, 1984, and originally held the call sign KMCM-FM.[1] It was owned by William J. O'Brien.[1][7] In 1986, the station was sold to Austin J. Baillon, along with AM 1050 KCCA, for $300,000.[7] KMCM-FM aired an adult contemporary format.[8][9][10] In 1997, the station was sold to Senger Broadcasting, along with AM 1050 KMTA, for $594,000.[11]
KKRY
In October 1997, the station adopted a country music format and its call sign was changed to KKRY.[10][2] The station was branded "Hot Country 92.5" (and later "Hot Country 92.3").[12][13] In 2005, the station's frequency was changed from 92.5 MHz to 92.3 MHz.[14][15] In 2006, KKRY was sold to Stephen Marks's Custer County Community Broadcasting Corporation, along with AM 1050 KMTA, for $540,000. Marks already owned KYUS-TV (channel 3) in Miles City; as the television station was a satellite of KULR-TV in Billings, it did not count against the Federal Communications Commission's cross-ownership rules.[13]
KYUS-FM
The station's call sign was changed to KYUS-FM on January 26, 2007.[2] The station adopted an adult hits format.[16] Following Stephen Marks's death in 2022,[17] his Montana and North Dakota stations—including KYUS-FM and KMTA—were sold to Andrew Sturlaugson's P&A Media for $850,000 in 2024.[18] The sale separated the radio stations from KYUS-TV, which the Marks estate retained.[19]
