KOB was a pioneer broadcaster in New Mexico that was first licensed in 1922. In the 1970’s, it transmitted from Albuquerque, New Mexico on 770 and was easily audible throughout Western North America. They sent this nice QSL card for my 1977 reception report.

Since then, the channel has become cluttered with other stations, making clear reception virtually impossible except near Albuquerque. The station changed call letters to KKOB in 1986 and its current format is NewsTalk.
