and the "LI"s: WLIM, WLIR, WLIX, etc., (Long Island)


WTBS, Tech Broadcasting Station from the mass. instutite of TECHnology,
(MIT) later sold to Turner.

WIBG (I believe in G-D) a relegious radio station in Philly, latter a
Rock and Roll station in the 1960's.

KYW (doesn't mean anything, was K for the U.S. Y for experimental, W for
Westinghouse), I assume at one time they had a KXW, there were four stations.
