The station went on the air on 1180 kHz as KBWA in 1977. On August 12, 1991, the station changed its call sign to the current KYET. Previously, this call-sign, KYET, had been assigned to a 500-watt AM radio station with its transmitter in Payette, Idaho, and the studios in Ontario, Oregon. [3]
The station fell silent in 2000 due to leasing issues with the City of Williams, Arizona.

Full-time operations resumed on October 16, 2012.
