U.S. Class I-A Clears are: 640, 650, 660, 670, 700, 720, 750, 760, 770,
780, 820, 830, 840, 870, 880, 890, 1020, 1030, 1040, 1100, 1120, 1160,
1180, 1200 and 1210, since 1941.
Additional, de-facto U.S. Class I-A Clears existed within that range, but
the owners elected to break these down to Class I-B Clears. What are now
810 (GE), 1110 (briefly, CBS) and 1190 (Westinghouse) are examples.
Notice that these are immediately adjacent to, or are within a group of
U.S. Class I-A Clears.
WOAI switched dial positions with WCAU when both went +30 kHz during
NARBA, thereby giving WOAI 1200 and WCAU 1210. Before, WCAU was 10 kHz
below WOAI.
