WDUZ (1400 kHz) and WDUZ-FM (107.5 MHz) are radio stations serving the Green Bay, Wisconsin area, simulcasting a sports format as "Sports Radio 107.5 and 1400 The Fan". The stations were owned by Clear Channel Communications, though they were still operated by their previous owner, Cumulus Media, who swapped ownership of both stations (and 3 other Green Bay signals) to Clear Channel in exchange for 2 Ohio stations in early 2009.[3] In August 2013, Clear Channel reached a deal to sell its Green Bay stations back to Cumulus.[4] The sale was consummated on December 31, 2013, at a price of $17,636,643.

WDUZ's studios and AM transmitter are located on Victoria Street in Green Bay, while the FM transmitter is located near Shirley in the Town of Glenmore.
