The station has been assigned the WYRY call letters by the Federal Communications Commission since May 14, 1984.[2]

The transmitter site is on Gunn Mountain, off Old Hinsdale Road in Winchester.[3] There are incorrect reports circulating that it is on the same land that was home to WRLP-TV, channel 32's transmitter, a local NBC affiliate repeating WWLP-TV's programming, until April 1978, when the channel 32 transmitter was dismantled and shipped to Utah, where channel 32's owner, William L. Putnam, was starting a new station.

On August 3, 2015, WYRY rebranded as "104.9 Nash Icon."[4]
