Thanks. I know I've seen these Philco Bill photos before, pretty fascinating, and who can forget a name like Philco Bill?  hi.....'Sounds like a wild west hero.   I was about to do a search on KBUC 1370 which was the call sign in the 1960s for what later became KREL and now KWRM......I heard that KDAD FM in Wyoming calls themselves "Bucking Country" hi....KDAD was of course the calls for the longtime CP for Weed CA on 800 which never materialized....All this crazy trivia....I'm wondering if I can send a good copy of an EKKO stamp to Zazzle or Café Press and have them print it on a mug, travel mug, or t-shirt?? hi. Might make a good auction item.   ms

For basic information FCCInfo.com is faster and displays more information on the same page. It can organize information that would be very difficult to organize using the FCC database. Do you want to know exactly how far you are from a transmitter site or which sites are within whatever number of kilometers you choose? Use FCCInfo.com. Here's a list of AM stations within 15 kilometers of where I live. Notice that three are the same distance and bearing. They're using the same tower.
