The Waubesa School is a historic school building at 5979 Siggelkow Road in McFarland, Wisconsin. Built in 1920 by contractor Louis A. Harrison, the school is a relatively late example of a one-room schoolhouse. The one-story brick building has an American Craftsman design with a projecting entrance topped by a bell tower, large sash windows, and a gable roof with exposed rafters. Like most one-room schoolhouses built after 1910, the Waubesa School is much larger than its nineteenth-century counterparts, and it included amenities such as electric wiring, a furnace, and a small library; its plans also included indoor plumbing, but this was rejected by voters due to its cost. Many of these features were likely a response to Wisconsin's state graded school initiative; though one-room schools were ineligible to be state-graded, the school met many of the other certification requirements. The school operated until 1954, when the school board voted to consolidate with the McFarland School District; McFarland used the building as a kindergarten until 1961 and sold it to private owners the following year.The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 17, 1997.

WTSO (1070 kHz, "1070 The Game") is a commercial AM radio station in Madison, Wisconsin. The station is owned and operated by iHeartMedia, Inc., and airs a sports format. From 2014 until February 1, 2020, WTSO was simulcast on FM translator W265CV at 100.9 MHz. W265CV now airs a 1960s-1970s oldies format as "U-100.9".WTSO's offices and studios are on South Fish Hatchery Road in Fitchburg (but using Madison as its mailing address). The transmitter is off East Tower Road in McFarland. WTSO operates at 10,000 watts by day. But at night it reduces its power to 5,000 watts, using a directional antenna, because AM 1070 is a clear-channel frequency. WTSO must protect Class A stations KNX Los Angeles and CBA Moncton, New Brunswick, from interference, so the nighttime signal is nulled away from the west and the east. (CBA switched to the FM dial in 2008 but WTSO still must protect the Canadian AM station's former coverage area.) WTSO's former FM translator operates with 250 watts from a 243-meter (798 foot) tower off South Pleasant View Road in Madison.
