WGNS
Murfreesboro, Tennessee's 1450 AM WGNS (W Good Neighbor Station) began broadcasting in 1947. Today it's a typical News/Talker but they played popular music up until the early 1990s. They are one of the very few stations that is allowed to simulcast their primary AM signal onto an FM translator of which they have two--at 100.5 and 101.9 FM.

Mystery Sticker #3 SOLVED!

--The current KKEA is in Honolulu, Hawaii at 1420 AM.
--There is a WKEA at 98.3 in Scottsboro, Alabama owned by KEA Radio. There happens to be a station at 1330 AM also licensed to Scottsboro--WZCT--but I can't find a previous ownership connection between the two. The only former call letters I could find for WZCT were WSGG.
--Maybe it's a television station...Channel 13...doubtful.
Help!
UPDATE: A reader confirmed that there was a WKEA in Scottsboro, Alabama circa 1981. Thank You person-who-I-didn't-ask-permission-to-use-her-name-but-it-rhymes-with-Maureen!

CFTR
Toronto's CHFI 1540 AM was a Beautiful Music station beginning in the early 1960s. By 1971 they had moved down the dial to 680 AM and changed their call letters to CFTR--a tribute to Ted Rogers, Sr., a Canadian radio pioneer. CFTR was a legendary Top 40 station throughout most of the 70s and 80s before switching to all News in 1993.
