Divides west from east, south and Midwest?
This is incorrect. It divides east and west but both the south and Midwest are on both sides. Arkansas is on the west, and Iowa is on the west. Mississippi is in the east, and Illinois is on the east. Alexander R. Burton (talk) 17:54, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
:It looks like that was added with [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mississippi_River&diff=next&oldid=430855183 this edit] back in 2011 without a source. I'll rework the paragraph. —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 20:10, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

Mention divide of [[call signs in the United States|call signs]]?
Currently, radio and TV call signs start with a W east of the Mississippi River, and a K west if the river. Of course there are exceptions like KYW-TV, but over 99% of radio and TV station call signs follow this.
I propose we add this as a small section to the article, and link to the article Call signs in the United States as one of those "main article" things. Evrstz (talk) 01:16, 27 February 2025 (UTC)
