Here is the line up for 98.7 FM according to Iheart.

98-7 The Fan will broadcast Chippewa Valley area high school sports and professional sports including Minnesota Twins, Minnesota Wild, Minnesota Vikings and Milwaukee Bucks.

“The Chippewa Valley is often a house divided when it comes to Wisconsin and Minnesota sports teams,” said Dave DeVille, Senior Vice President of Programming for iHeartMedia Eau Claire. “We’ve curated a home base station for all sports fans to enjoy.”

Full Programming Lineup:
The Power Trip 5:30 a.m. – 9 a.m.
Nine to Noon with John Kuhn 9 a.m. – 12 p.m.
“Common Man” Dan Cole 12 p.m. – 3 p.m.
Drew & KB 3 p.m. – 6 p.m.
FOX Sports Weekends

At first it seemed unusual for a market the size of Eau Claire (Market #231) to have this many hours of local sports talk.

But it turns out John Kuhn and "Drew & KB" are being imported from Milwaukee, and "The Power Trip" and Dan Cole are based in the Twin Cities. iHeart is just trying to leverage their existing talent in a new market.
