KGWY (100.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a country music format. Licensed to Gillette, Wyoming, United States, the station is currently owned by Basin Radio Network, a division of Legend Communications of Wyoming, LLC.[2]
KGWY and its three sister stations, KIML, KAML-FM, and KDDV are located at 2810 Southern Drive, Gillette. The KGWY transmitter site is on Rain Dancer Court, close to the radio studios.
The station, along with its sister stations, has been publicly recognized for its community efforts, raising over $100,000 during its annual St. Jude Radiothons.[3]
History
[edit]The station was assigned the call sign KGWY on January 18, 1983, as Y-100, a Top-40 station.[4][5]
In 2024, the ownership of Legend Communications underwent a major restructuring. Co-owner Susan K. Patrick was sentenced to prison for tax fraud, which included evading taxes on millions of dollars in income. She was ordered to pay restitution exceeding $3.8 million. Following this, her ex-husband and co-founder, W. Lawrence Patrick, filed an application with the FCC to become the sole owner of Legend Communications, taking over Susan Patrick's 50% stake.[6][7]
