The Twin Cities radio site encompasses the metro area of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota as heard from southeast suburban Inver Grove Heights, 11 miles south of downtown St. Paul and 17 miles southeast of downtown Minneapolis.
Because this area is saturated with low-power stations and translators, reception here is unsatisfactory, even with added elevation. While 92 stations could be heard at this location, the average distance of reception was only 39 miles, barely enough to cross the metro area. No stations were received in excess of 100 miles. Typical reception here ranges from St. Cloud, Willmar, and Mankato on the west side of the metro area to Eau Claire and Rice Lake on the east side.
