[4] WYKR-FM's programming is also heard on daytime-only station WTWN (1100 AM) and FM translator W286DE (105.1) in Wells River, Vermont.

Both WYKR-FM and WTWN are owned by Joshua Smith's Yankee Kingdom Media Corp. WYKR began broadcasting in 1976 over the AM station in Wells River, which operated at 1490 kHz until 1987.

WYKR AM became WTWN in 1999, and aired Christian radio programming during the 2000s before returning to the WYKR-FM simulcast.

[5] In the late 1980s, Puffer Broadcasting obtained a construction permit for an FM station at 101.3 MHz, with the intent of simulcasting WYKR's country music programming.

[5] The new station was assigned the WYKR-FM call sign by the Federal Communications Commission on November 10, 1988,[7] and went on the air February 19, 1990.
