Call signs in the United States are identifiers assigned to radio and television stations, which are issued by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and, in the case of most government stations, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA).

The NATO phonetic alphabet is a Spelling Alphabet, a set of words used instead of letters in oral communication (i.e. over the phone or military radio). Each word ("code word") stands for its initial lette r (alphabetical "symbol").

In broadcasting and radio communications, a call sign (also known as a call name or call letters —and historically as a call signal —or abbreviated as a call) is a unique identifier for a transmitter station.

Broadcast callsigns are normally four or five letters in length, plus the -FM or -TV suffix where applicable, though several older stations have only three letters. The longest callsign is six letters, plus suffix: XHMORE-FM. All Mexican TV stations using digital TV signals use the "-TDT" suffix.

One of the biggest things to come out of this gathering was the assignment of certain letters to certain countries, to identify their radio and television signals – America was given W, K, N, and A (fun fact: Canada got ‘C’ and Mexico got ‘X’).
