KKON

  • ... that Hawaii radio station KKON went off the air in lieu of repointing its satellite dish? Source
    • ALT1:... that Hawaii radio station KKON changed its format in 1974—and reversed the change the next day after nearly 120 disapproving phone calls? Source

5x expanded by Raymie (talk). Self-nominated at 04:21, 26 September 2019 (UTC).

  • Expanded more than fivefold on 25 September; well referenced; no obvious close paraphrasing on a spot-check of sources (which are mostly PDFs or scanned newspaper pages and therefore unable to be run through Earwig). Both hooks are interesting and cited to reliable sources. QPQ is done. 97198 (talk) 09:06, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote ALT1, but wonder if the hook could be less vague about the format change. Yoninah (talk) 22:56, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: Try this (same source). Raymie (tc) 23:00, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
ALT1a: ... that Hawaii radio station KKON changed its format from "beautiful music" to rock in 1974—and reversed the change the next day after nearly 120 disapproving phone calls?
  • Yes, thanks. ALT1a hook ref verified and cited inline. Restoring tick per 97198's review. Yoninah (talk)
