The station is currently owned by Commonwealth Broadcasting, and features programming from Fox News Radio and Real Country (Westwood One).

In January 2002, Forever Communications Inc. (Carol Logan, president) reached an agreement to purchase the station from Royse Radio for a reported sale price of $416,412.

Along with its classic country format, WLYE was also the official broadcaster of Edmonson County High School football and boys' and girls' basketball games from the 2003–2004 season until 2014.

The rights to those games became Internet-exclusive upon that year's launch of EdmonsonVoice.com, an online-based news website specifically catering to the Brownsville and Edmonson County area.

WBGN has since switched to an oldies format, but still retained their status as the Bowling Green Hot Rods' official broadcaster (until WKCT won the rights in 2021) and its affiliation with the Nashville Predators Radio Network.
