Do any of the "listers" recall the AM frequency for Radio Station KPOL in Los Angeles during the Fifties and Sixties?

Thank y'all in advance for your assistance and courtesy.

Best regards,

I used to listen to KPOL -- a "beautiful music" station. I don't remember the frequency, but it was on this station I heard a great real, live blooper! "Try this sauce on ice cream, puddings, and other infections. (silence) uhh... I mean, CONfections!" It wouldn't have been nearly as funny on a wild DJ type show, but the suit-and-tie image of KPOL made the slip-up all the more incongruous!

Don:

Wayne at the National Radio Club informs me that the frequency in 1976 was 1540 KHz. The current call in LA on 1540 KHz is KMPC. I will send you more details on the NRC by direct e-mail.
