    Had no idea that the Hagadone family was involved. If they’d owned a Spokane TV station into the 80s, my life would be very different today.

    What a great set of Call Letters. Match the county and very regal sounding.
    Also easier to remember then KSTW or KXLY.

    KREM (which locals pronounce as CREM) ain’t a bad set either.
    KREM had a great FM radio station, that WSU students could get over cable. Played freeform sounding music, jazz, Woodstock era album cuts, and anything the top 40 stations wouldn’t play.
    It was the very 70s definition of FM radio.
