KGRK started as a construction permit in 2004. The station received its license to cover on June 7, 2007. It was originally owned by Michael Radio Group, and was on 98.3 FM.[4] The station was sold to Cochise Broadcasting in 2010, and moved to 98.5 FM. The station was part of a decision by the FCC to divest stations owned by Cochise to non-commercial entities. The reason for this divesture was because the stations were off air or broadcasting silence for long periods of time.[5] Several of the stations in the decision were donated to the University of Wyoming. Cochise was able to keep its Casper stations. [6]
