I grew up in NE Iowa, between two TV markets: Mason City, Austin, MN, and Rochester, MN, as well as Waterloo, Cedar Rapids. We mostly watched KGLO in Mason City, or KWWL in Waterloo for news, but we did sometimes watch WMT, too.

I rarely listen to Dolphin, although virtually anyone is better than Zabel for my money.
