1570 AM is a Mexican clear-channel frequency, on which XERF-AM in Ciudad Acuña is the dominant Class A station.

WLKD went on the air on August 1, 1978 as WFBZ, playing big band music.

On April 1, 1985, WFBZ changed its calls to WMYM (We Make Your Memories) and flipped to an Adult Standards format programmed separately from the FM.

In January 2009, WLKD dropped ESPN Radio and switched back to the Music of Your Life format.

On January 22, 2014, WLKD changed its format to soft oldies, branded as "The Lake".
