But, KVI was once licensed to Vashon Island, from whence comes its call 
letters, K-VI, and its transmitter is still there, along with all of 
Seattle's Class As, and many of its Class Bs.

Seattle has shuffled calls and frequencies, over time.

950 used to be 1000; 1000 used to be 950.

1360 has been in two cities.

570 has been in three.


KXA was L-KOB, and didn't directly figure into the KOB/WABC case.

Peripherally, it did, of course, as after "Rio", and all the U.S. Clears 
were broken down, KXA filed for unlimited time operation, as did 
Portland's KXL, which had been L-WSB.
