Because AM 830 is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WCCO in Minneapolis, WEEU must reduce power to 6,000 watts at night to avoid interference. It uses a six-tower array to create different directional signal patterns for daytime and nighttime. During the day, WEEU's signal is aimed toward the northwest and the southeast from its transmitter in Shartlesville, near Interstate 78. During the evenings, WEEU's signal is directed toward the southeast, away from Minneapolis.
