 | | WRJR -- calls for 1500 in Zion from late 1984 to late 1980, somewhere between WKZN and WNIZ. | | | WJWC -- call change for WHIP about 1942, but the 1520 station did not last...the new owners hoped to move the station to Chicago, but war-time equipment embargoes made the necessary upgrades impossible, so it was off by mid-1943. | | | Programming moved up the dial a bit to 750, and the calls were supposed to follow but as of last I checked they had not. |

| | Definition of Radio call sign |
| | In radio (including television), a callsign or call sign (also call letters) is a unique designation for amateur, broadcast, and sometimes military radio use, as well as for broadcast television. | | | Radio stations are also required to identify their community of license. | | | Many stations prefer not to use callsigns at all, since a slogan is more easily remembered by listeners (and those filling in diaries for the Arbitron Company's radio ratings). |

| | When a ham radio station is set up on board a ship, the call-sign should be followed the suffix /MM. | | | So, VU2MSY would become VU2MSY/MM (maritime mobile)when it operates from a ship. | | | In amateur radio, the unique name assigned to a ham radio station and its owner helps you to know its operator as well as the country to which he belongs. |
