Fort Dodge is the largest city on 169, and is the third line on mileage signs at either end of the state - this one, leaving Elmore and coming into Iowa, and the one below, three miles past the Missouri line.

Although it's out of the viewing area, along part of 169's route in Missouri in 2006 I was able to catch WOWT's television broadcast over the radio. (TV Channel 6 can also be heard on 87.7 FM.) Not anymore, thanks to digital television.
