Also, are there any sets of calls in which the AM/FM and TV stations
are hundreds of miles apart other than for KCBS?

KCBS is in San Francisco. KCBS-TV (originally KNXT, from KNX for the
Los Angeles Evening Express) and KCBS-TV are in Los Angeles.


Yep: for one example, WWVA-AM in Wheeling, West Virginia: WWVA-FM in an
Atlanta suburb. There are other examples.

But to the best of my knowledge, KCBS was the *first* station to "split"
their calls like that.
