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