WFQY is an urban gospel radio station, licensed to Brandon, Mississippi and serving the Jackson, Mississippi area.
From July 2019 to June 2020, WFQY has been simulcasting WJMF-LP (87-7 The Bridge), one of many Franken FMs the FCC had ordered to cease broadcasting by July 2021.
The station began as WRKN in the late 1960s as a country station. Longtime owners were Roy and June Harris. For a short time the station had a 1950s-based oldies format and also had a country gospel format for while. In later years it simulcast its sister station WRJH 97.7 FM with a Southern Gospel format. After WRJH was sold, WRKN AM continued to operate with a Southern Gospel format. After the retirement of the owner the station emerged as an affiliate of the "Real Country" network with classic country with callsign WZQK.
On May 19, 2008, WZQK (Real Country 970) switched from classic country to all-sports. The station's callsign became WJFN.
WJFN also operates a 99-watt translator on 99.1 FM (W256BL) located in Jackson, but is licensed to Ridgeland, Mississippi.
On April 5, 2012, WJFN changed its callsign to WFQY and on April 20, 2012, WFQY changed its format to classic hip hop, branded as BDay 99-1.
In July 2019 (after brief period of silence), WFQY resumed broadcasting, but was actually simulcasting WJMF-LP.
In June 2020, classic hip-hop returned to WFQY.
In August 2023, WFQY dropped classic hip-hop to simulcast WZQK. The classic hip-hop format (still branded BDay 99-1) has since moved online.
On April 19, 2024, WFQY ended its simulcast with WZQK and relaunched with urban gospel.
