The station has been assigned the WYRY call letters by the Federal Communications Commission since May 14, 1984.[3]
The transmitter site is on Gunn Mountain, off Old Hinsdale Road in Winchester.[4] There are incorrect reports circulating that it is on the same land that was home to the transmitter of WRLP (channel 32), a local NBC affiliate repeating WWLP'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".[5]
