A Pause For Station Identification II
In the United States all radio and television stations are represented by "call letters". Each set of call letters is 4 letters long. Call letters for stations east of the Mississippi river begin with a "W", while stations west of the river begin with "K".
Using the description of their station and/or the format, figure out the call letters of these fictional stations. (E.g. A station for people getting their affairs in order before they die might be W-I-L-L)
Note: Some stations will use phonetics opposed to exact spelling.
West of Mississippi River:
1) A station for people who are placid and relaxed.
2) A station for poker and blackjack dealers.
3) A station about all things automotive.
East of Mississippi River:
1) A station that gets people up in the morning, or that you might listen to before a funeral.
2) A station for people standing in lines or just biding their time.
3) A station for greedy people.

This was an okay teaser. But, would those stations really be for those people? Often the letters stand for nothing at all. Other than that, you did a very good job.
Got all of the east ones, and none of the west ones.
