The lineup includes the Minneapolis-based FAN Network as well as a local show at noon called “Mic’d Up Misfits.”

KFOW, owned by the Linder and Ketelsen families’ Main Street Broadcasting, is operated alongside “KRUE Country 92.1” (Waseca) and Adult Contemporary-formatted KOWZ/100.9 (Blooming Prairie).
The FAN Network is also heard on Linder/Ketelsen stations in Mankato and Marshall.
The News/Talk format had launched in October 2020 as “Fox News Radio” and later rebranded as “News/Talk 1170.” Its lineup had included Hugh Hewitt, Brian Kilmeade, and Markley, Van Camp and Robbins, along with the Linder Farm Network and AgriTalk.
