WLKX (95.9 FM) is a radio station licensed to Forest Lake, Minnesota and primarily serving the far north suburbs of the Twin Cities.

KBGY is owned by the Peters family, who are primarily fundamentalist Christian-based broadcasters. The station airs contemporary Christian music, and briefly simulcast with its sister station south of the metro area, KBGY. In 2004, KBGY split off from the simulcast and currently airs a Regional Mexican music format. WLKX is currently operated on behalf of the Peters family by Milestone Radio, which also owns or manages several other stations surrounding the Twin Cities area, including WQPM in Princeton, KLCI in Elk River, KASM and KDDG in Albany.

The WLKX call letters have been with the station for several decades, and in the past, the station has programmed adult contemporary and country music formats.
