radio call letters

One of my all-time favorite sitcoms is WKRP in Cincinnati, which took place at a radio station. There was at least one episode involving the station mascot, a carp - but the call letters could just as well have been alluding to the word 'crap.' Subtle, but quite intentional I'm certain.

Another favorite sitcom, Frasier, takes place at a radio station with the call letters KACL. Although those letters are attributed to the co-creators of the show, Angell, Casey, and Lee, I think the word 'cackle' is even more deliberate!
