WABC was quickly upgraded, and the signal relocated to a stronger frequency, 860 kHz.
(In 1946 WABC was re-named WCBS; the station moved to a new frequency, 880 kHz, in the FCC's 1941 re-assignment of stations.) As the network's flagship,WCBS was where much of CBS's programming originated; other owned-and-operated stations were KNX Los Angeles, KCBS San Francisco, WBBM Chicago, WJSV Washington, DC (later WTOP), KMOX St.
Louis, and WCCO Minneapolis.) Those stations remain the core affiliates of the CBS Radio Network today, with WCBS still the flagship, and all but WTOP (a Bonneville Broadcasting property) owned by CBS Radio.
