Since I always forget something, a small addition.
The LAPD and other MF police transmitters had regular four
letter calls up to some point probably in the mid 1940s, I don't
know the date, when the FCC changed assigned calls to public
service transmitters to a combination of letters and numbers. I
don't remember the original call but KMA367 was the later call.
Its familiar to many because it was MF and widely heard on
broadcast receivers but was not a general assignment to LAPD
transmitters.
