>>trading KNXT (TV) in on KCBS-TV did seem a little out of the box, as
KCBS (AM) is located in the #5 market, while KCBS-TV is in the #2
market.<<
It may be, but honestly, how often does the average viewer refer to a TV
station by its FCC-assigned call sign?
When CBS did the call-sign change, they ran an ad in the trades to
announce it, which carried the tag line at the bottom:
(Bet you can't remember what our call letters used to be.)
Much truth there, methinks.
