BrothelLife

In case any of you radio fans wondered about the call letter assignment, read this:

Now if each brothel could be given a radio license...
(PS:  What call letters would work for your favorite house?)

Thank you for sharing.  Having been raised in NY, my dad told me how the stations west of the Mississippi started with "K" and the ones east, the only ones I was familiar with, started with a "W", but I didn't know about the early TX/NM border thing, so thanks for the info.  I'm a bit smarter now than I was this morning.

When I was a kid, every Sunday the family would listen to a station out of Schenectady, NY, which had been owned by General Electric (not Westinghouse) with 3 letters, WGY.  That was the only one I knew of that had three letters, at least when I was a kid.  Now, living out west, I hear powerful 3 letter stations all the time at night -- KNX, KFI, KOA, KOB, and KSL (the last being in Salt Lake City, so it incorporated the city's initials into the call sign). Of course, there are a lot of small stations with the 4-letter callsigns that represent the town or locations they are in, but my favorite is in Elmira, NY -- WENY.  I can't imagine telling anyone where you work and still keeping a straight face!

If I could suggest callsigns for a brothel, they'd be: KBJ, KSEX, KASS, KISS, KUNT, KOCK or if they could have numbers in the callsign,  K69S !!!  Of course, that's for houses west of the Mississippi ...

Here's a leg-wetting fact about WLS in Chicago.  They were originally on the air to promo Sears to farmers!  Worlds Largest Store (WLS).

Sounds like they were 100 years ahead of Amazon.
