USA commercal radio stations have call letters begining with a K or W.

In general the K stations are west of the Mississippi River. W stations are
east of the Mississippi.

There are some that do not comform. WFAA is in Dallas, TX. KVA & KDKA are in
Pittsburgh, PA, and there are others.

They all have call letters. Just do not be confused by on-air idents of
"Q-102". This is just marketing hype.
