I grew up in Dallas, Texas, with WRR-FM and WRR-AM (now KAAM-AM),
WBAP-AM and WBAP-TV (now KXAS-TV), WFAA-AM and WFAA-TV, and, down in
San Antonio, WOAI-AM and -TV. I then moved near Philadelphia and
watched KYW-TV.

What I find rather more interesting are situations where stations
sharing the same callsign are in completely different metropolitan
areas. For example, KCBS-TV is in Los Angeles, but KCBS-AM is in San
Francisco.
