In 2006, Ron Meredith and M&M Broadcasting purchased WXJB, WFXY, and WANO in Middlesboro, KY, Harrogate, TN, and Pineville, KY, for just over 1 million dollars, changed the call letters to of WXJB to WMYL, and branded the station as Merle FM, moving it Knoxville and Halls Crossroads, to which it is licensed. As of spring 2020, the station is now branded "96.7 Merle. Forgotten favorites and only the new country you love."

Since moving on to Halls Crossroads, 96.7 Merle has offered a mix of old and new country and is wildly successful in East Tennessee.
