More than that.
1300 in Fresno ran it.
1540 in Santa Cruz ran it.
1050 in San Francisco ran it.
All within a 100 mile, or so, radius.
Perhaps even 1210 in Philadelphia, when the merged Westinghouse/CBS
couldn't figure out what to do with WCAU (AM) (the TV was sold to NBC,
and thereby became an O&O ... a replacement for the failed swap of NBC's
Cleveland O&O for Westinghouse's KYW).
