I'd like to add WOC in Iowa for World Of Chiropractic since the Palmer School of Chiropractic founded the station, WCFL in Chicago was founded be the Chicago Federation of Labor, a union and KFKB in Kansas was "Kansas Folks Know Best." The last station was the first station used by a Dr. Brinkley who hawked the power of goat's glads to cure illnesses. Well, we have WTOV-TV Steubenville, Ohio for "Television of the Ohio Valley," it used to be WSTV-TV for "Steubenville TV." WWVA is for "Wheeling West VirginiA." In Pittsburgh we have (had) two K stations, or three if you count KDKA-FM, KDKA-AM nd KQV but I think they were more random, at least in KDKA's case, I think originally, KDKA was going to be assigned to a ship. KQV is dark now but there is someone who bought it and will resurrect it later this year.
