Correct Stephen......I heard KPPC-1240 Pasadena several times on sunday
night (monday morning) from midnight to their s/off around 12:05-7
PST...Verified them as well. They were 100 watts. Oh, my reception was
from Sacramento in the mid 60s. Eventually the L.A. stn on 1230
swallowed them up 15-20 years ago.

Wasn't there a 1230 vs 1240 situation in the L.A. / I.E. area? From what I
understand, there was a little 1240 in Pasadena that I think was only on the
air Sundays and Wednesday evenings, running 100 watts. When it was on, 1230 in
Los Angeles and 1240 in San Bernardino had to cut back to 100 watts as well.
Anyone know more info about those?

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?
