KFXN, is a radio station licensed to Minneapolis, Minnesota, serving the Twin Cities area. The station is owned by Clear Channel Communications.
KFXN, also known as "Score 690", is sister station to sports-formatted KFAN. They air a complimentary sports talk format, which today consists mostly of syndicated shows from FOX Sports and ESPN, as well as Jim Rome's nationally syndicated program.
The station has a long history as sister station to various incarnations of 97.1 FM. For many years, the call letters were KTCR, with a country music format (like its sister station (then KTCR-FM). In 1984, they flipped to a jazz format as KTCJ to compliment the new 'Cities 97'. The jazz format as KTCJ lasted several years, but eventually ceded to a mere simulcast with its FM sister. In 1997, KTCJ briefly became KXBR, once again playing classic country music.
In 1998, 690 became a counterpart to KFAN, airing repeats of KFAN's local shows as well as various syndicated fare as KFXN.
KFXN is essentially a daytime-only station, broadcasting at 500 watts, though they do have a four watt signal during nighttime hours with very limited reach.
