KVFM

It's rare that I don't get at least one hit on Google when looking for info on stations for this blog but that's the case with KVFM in Walnut Grove, Washington.  My records show that they sent me this magnet in 2009 along with a sticker and magnet from sister-station KBFD in nearby Sunset Beach, Oregon.  KVFM may have been a legal yet unlicensed low-power Part 15 broadcaster and appears to have been programmed in the style of late 1960s-era Freeform Rock stations as KMPX, KSAN and KMET.  If you have any info about the defunct KVFM, leave a comment.

WOKO AM & FM

The WOKO call letters could be found on the AM dial in Albany, New York from 1931 until 1983 (and briefly again in 1987/88.)  This sticker probably dates to the early 80s near the end of their second attempt at a Country format.




98.9 FM WOKO has been a Country station in Burlington, Vermont since 1990.  A footnote on the Wikipedia page for what is now WOPG says that the WOKO call letters were chosen for this station at the behest of an employee who wished to honor the original WOKO in Albany.
