I haven't verified this yet, but it appears that the real reason the
change from KNXT-TV to KCBS-TV took place may be that a Bay Area
radio station (KCBS-AM) apparently dropped that callsign, freeing
it for KNXT-TV to use.  I don't think that the delay in applications
under the old FCC rules had anything to do with it.  If that's all
that was involved, KNXT-TV would have filed the application twenty or
more years ago and would have long since gotten the change approved.

Can someone in the SF Bay area fill us in on the status of KCBS-AM?
Did they change affiliations or formats?  Any information would
be appreciated.
