The station and its sister were sold to local resident David Horsely in 2008. [3] The stations and the now active translator for KRSV were sold again in 2015 to the current owners, SVI Media, LLC. [4] [5] The station is an affiliate of the Wyoming Cowboys and Cowgirls from the University of Wyoming. [6]

KRSV and its FM sister are a part of a larger network owned by SVI Media LLC. The network expended in 2018 to include a station and its translators across the border from Afton in Montpelier, Idaho. That station is KVSI. KMER 940 in Kemmerer, and KDWY in Diamondville, were included in the expansion. [7]

KRSV and KRSV-FM had long carried a country format, before the FM counterpart became adult contemporary known as Swift 98.7. [8] [9]
