 North American call sign - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Generally, call signs begin with "K" west of the Mississippi River, and "W" to the east.
New full-power stations were formerly assigned sequential call signs if the permittee does not choose one of their own; these were always four letters, of which the third was the least-significant digit and the second was the most-significant digit of the sequence number.
FM radio and television call signs may be followed by a dash and the two-letter class of station: "-FM," "-LP," "-TV," or "-CA." For digital television, the "-HD" and later "-DT" suffixes are usually not used (one exception being KKYK-DT), as the digital channel is not usually licensed separately from the analogue.

 North American Leadership Institute - A Call For Leadership
So an American Catholic has a twofold reason to be concerned about globalization: as an American, because of the leading role of the United States; and, as a Catholic, because the outlook of a Catholic tends naturally to take within its scope the entire world.
This is why the North American Educational Initiatives Foundation (www.naeif.org) was formed: in order to provide university students with opportunities to acquire the virtue of solidarity, by living it.
