RE: WKTQ (was tv on radio)

I believe some of the Cape Cod stations are licensed to "Hyannis" which is a
unincorporated village in the town of Barnstable.

And WHOM is licensed to Mt Washington NH, not an incorporated village or
municipality (I think that it's officially in Sargent's Purchase NH)

And "North Conway" is only a village of "Conway".....gee now that I think of
it, there's actually a lot of examples......
