KYNS

The station is owned by Martha Fahnoe, through licensee Dimes Media Corporation, and broadcasts a classic country format featuring hits of the late 1980s to the early 2000s.

[5] Hill sold KATY just four years later, in June 1977, to Riverside Broadcasting Company for $400,000; former station owner W. John Grandy brokered the deal.

[8] In April 1989, Great Electric Communications Corporation attempted to purchase KATY from Wischnia for $160,000; this sale would have brought the hybrid adult contemporary/talk-formatted station under common ownership with KUHL and KXFM in Santa Maria.

[15] Mapleton Communications sold KYNS and sister stations KPYG, KWWV, KXDZ, and KXTZ to Martha Fahnoe's Dimes Media Corporation for $1 million; the sale closed on January 15, 2015.

[17] KYNS is rebroadcast via two FM translator stations as well as on KWWV-HD3, the third HD Radio subchannel of KWWV (106.1) in San Luis Obispo.
