WCCO

:For the real-life CBS station and radio station on 830 AM in Minneapolis, see and on Wikipedia.
WCCO is the ABN affiliate operating in the Minneapolis/St. Cloud/Wilmar viewing areas on channels 33 and 59. Channels 33 and 59 were two separate small TV stations operated by KOMN and KCOA. Channel 59 is translated via relay station KUC59-LP. It was not affected by the recent events transpiring in the U.S. Television Realignment of 2015.
It is simulcast on radio affiliate 830 AM.
The station serves a seventeen county radius which includes McCleod, Carver, Hennepin, Anoka, Sherburne, Wright, Isanti, Ramsay, Chisago, Sibley, Nicollet, Scott, Le Sueur, Rice, Dakota, Washington and Goodhue and the Northwest Wisconsin counties of Polk, Pierce, Saint Croix, Dunn, Barron and Rusk. Because WCCO is also licenced to Wilmar, MN, 830 AM and channel 33/59 serve an additional seven counties including Kandiyohi, Renville, Meeker, Chippewa, Swift, Pope, and Stearns through Wilmar station, KAWM AM 1100 AM and 99.5 FM.
The Wilmar studios serve as the Southwest Minnesota bureau covering eleven counties while the Minneapolis studios serve the Twin Cities and surrounding seven-county area including Northwest Wisconsin.
On September 29, 2017, former Berfield/Willis owned station KSDA was traded for Victoria, Texas station KVCZ so that the Mankato studios can serve as the Southwest Twin Cities bureau.
