They could also relaunch WJKW...WJW's infamous place-holder calls from 1976-1985 because of Storer's sale of WJW radio.  When WJW-AM changed to WRMR, Storer restored the calls to TV8 and they've been there ever since.

 

But what's probably keeping that from not happening is an FM station in Athens, Ohio with the WJKW calls that brands themselves as "Ohio's Christian Superstation".  Even though it would be perfectly legal for Nexstar to do so for WBNX.

 

Another thought....WJCW?  (exists as an AM station in Johnson City, TN owned by iHeart Media)

Yeah, WCLE (AM) and WCLE-FM are both also down in Tennessee -- Cleveland, TN, to be exact.

 

WJJW might be available, though. The calls are on an FM station at a small college in northwestern Massachusetts; Nexstar could probably work out a deal that would allow them to use WJJW-DT in exchange for a "modest" donation.
