Oddly enough, the FCC used to send telegrams to notify stations when
certain applications (call letter changes and power increases among
them) were approved.  They were doing so as late as 1979 (I've seen
a couple examples from that year), but that practice apparently ceased
sometime between then and the late 1980's.
