KOGO
600 AM KOGO is a News/Talk station in San Diego, California. They were formerly known as KFSD but after a format flip they decided to change call letters as well. Supposedly, information about San Diego was entered into an IBM computer and was asked to find the perfect set of call letters. Out of a possible 17,576 combinations the computer chose KOGO which became their new call letters in February 1961. The top sticker dates to some time after 1972 when they were owned by Retlaw Broadcasting. Retlaw was Disney's broadcast division (the company name is Walter spelled backwards.)
