1920 KDKA broadcasts election results November 2

KDKA (1020 kHz) is a radio station licensed to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Created by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation on November 2, 1920, it is the world's first modern radio station, a distinction that has also been challenged by other stations, although it has claimed to be the first in the world to be "commercially licensed". KDKA is currently owned and operated by CBS Radio and its studios are located at the combined CBS Radio Pittsburgh facility on Foster Drive in Pittsburgh; its transmitter is in Allison Park.
