History:
This station dates back to an initial construction permit that was issued in January of 1986.  It did not get on the air fully until August of 1988, but since then it has always been a Bible Broadcasting Network affiliate, relaying the programming from WYFA in Waynesboro, Georgia.  WYFK, in turn, feeds several more translators throughout Georgia and Alabama.  In July of 2014 the station received a construction permit for a very minor decrease in antenna height, along with some corrected tower site coordinates.

The station received a permit to change from a Jampro JSCP-6 six bay antenna to a Propagation Systems 6 bay antenna in October 2021.
