List Of Three-letter Broadcast Callsigns In The United States
This is a list of three-letter broadcast call signs in the United States.
Most primary United States radio and television broadcasters have four-letter call signs, like WHFS. However, a number of early broadcasters still have a license with a three-letter call sign. Such a short call sign is generally an indication of the long-time existence of the station. The suffix does not count, only the base call sign. Stations which formerly had three letters but have since changed are not currently listed.
