They could ask for KYA not KYA-AM.  AM stations do not
get a   -AM designation.  FM stations CAN get -FM, but
not necessarily so.  

You can no longer "get" the WIS calls. Years ago the
sale of WIS radio was sold with the requirement of
changing calls. WIS-TV then filed and dropped the -TV
from their call letters.
