... that when the College of the Pacific started a radio station, it had to settle for the call sign KCVN because a police facility held the rights to "KCOP"? Source: p9 (PDF 11)

5x expanded by Raymie (talk). Self-nominated at 02:10, 26 March 2020 (UTC).[reply]

New enough (expanded March 25), long enough 4,379 characters, article is neutral and well-cited throughout, and a manual spot-check of sources isn't finding any close paraphrasing or outright copyvio (Earwig also gives a 0%.). Hook is short enough (154 characters), fact cited to and in ref 3, and hook is definitely punchy and interesting (and not unduly negative towards the living). QPQ in progress, no image to worry about. Hook is good to go! —Collin^{t c} 20:10, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
