FAMOUS FIRSTS TRIVIA



The first commercial radio station was broadcasted in Pittsburgh, Pennslyvania. What was the name of the station?



KDKA is the us99 trivia answer.



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/kdka_(am)...



KDKA (1020 AM) is a radio station located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The station operates on a clear channel and is owned by CBS Radio. KDKA's studios are co-located with sister station KDKA-TV (channel 2) at the Gateway Center complex in downtown Pittsburgh, and its transmitter is located in Allison Park, Pennsylvania.



KDKA broadcasts a news/talk radio format. Its 50 kilowatt (or 50,000 watt) signal can be heard in large parts of Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia during the day. At night, it reaches much of the eastern half of North America. KDKA enjoys grandfathered status as one of the few remaining stations east of the Mississippi River which has call letters beginning with K.
