History.
Early Years (1995–2007).
The station was originally located at the 105.5 frequency and featured a Hot AC format under the temporary call letters KQOL before becoming KSTJ. In 2000, a frequency swap took place in which the new frequency 105.7 FM moved to the Las Vegas market, and KSTJ moved to the 102.7 frequency as a result. It had also debuted an 80s hits format as "Star 102.7". The format had moderate success, but in 2005, KSTJ began experiencing a ratings decline when KMZQ-FM debuted the "Jack FM" concept, with similar music being played, as well as having a bigger playlist, and the overall shrinking of the 80s hits formats in general. 
Hot AC turned CHR era (2007-2009).
On September 14, 2007, at 3 p.m., the station returned to Hot AC and rebranded as "Fresh 102.7". The last song on "Star" was "Cum On Feel the Noize" by Quiet Riot, while the first song on "Fresh" was "Straight From The Heart" by Bryan Adams. The station's callsign was changed to KFRH to reflect the new format on October 5, 2007.
On April 1, 2009, at 2 p.m., KFRH dropped the Hot AC format and began stunting with a loop of voices asking "When?" followed by the occasional "Soon", along with several songs with the word "when" in the title. At 4:33 p.m. that day, the station flipped to a Top 40 format branded as 102.7 Now. The first song played on "Now" was "Right Now (Na Na Na)" by Akon.
Country era (2009-present).
On August 25, 2009, KCYE and KFRH swapped frequencies, with KCYE moving to the higher-powered 102.7 frequency, while KFRH's Top 40 format moving to the lesser-powered 104.3 frequency. On April 13, 2015, Disney announced that the Radio Disney network would become distributed through affiliations with HD Radio subchannels. KCYE was the first HD Radio affiliate of the network, and launched the format on their HD2 sub-channel.
After re-branding on November 30, 2015 as "102.7 Rodeo Radio" during the National Finals Rodeo, on December 13, 2015, KCYE began stunting with Christmas music, branded as "102.7 Santa FM". However, the station returned to its country music format as "102.7 The Coyote".
