WDUL is a Class D AM station. It is powered at 1,000 watts by day, using a non-directional antenna. But to avoid interference to other stations on 970 AM, at night it greatly reduces power to 26 watts. Programming is also heard on 250-watt FM translator W251CD at 98.1 MHz in Superior. It uses the translator dial position in its moniker "Hot 98.1."
