Pete,
WJJD-1160-Chicago comes quickly to mind. They could stay on uintil KSL
sunset. Also I think KXL-750-Portland OR could broadcast only when WSB
was off the air. Which wasn't that uncommon back in the 50s.......My
favorite was the 2 Los Angeles stations on 1150, KRKD & KFSG who would
alternate time. Of course, in Chicago 3 stations shared 1240 for a long
time.

No doubt, someone with nostalgic leanings came up with the calls since some of
us can remember the old KXA-770 Seattle. (This market is heavy with these what
with KKOL and KKMO).
Speaking of that, goodness gracious, here's another exciting thread: How many of the old
"L" (limited) stations can you come up with? These had to sign off at local
sunset but could come back at 9pm local. I recall:
KFAX-1100
KFVD/KPOP-1020
KXA-770
There are a few other idiosyncratic licenses as well:
KKDZ-1250 goes to night pattern at local sunset but goes to non-DA at midnight
local
WHEB-750 could stay on until Atlanta sunset
WCKY stays on day pattern until KFBK sunset
KMMJ works around Atlanta sunset
Not too many of these left. What did I miss?
Meanwhile, has anyone heard an actual KKXA ID?

Just a friendly reminder that the correct calls of the new 1520 are K K X A,
