Over the years, pictures of radio stations, especially broadcast band stations, have often adorned postcards. Such cards have also depicted various other radio themes. Although not QSLs, they can be interesting to the listener-collector.

• Iowa - Here are some postcard views of KFNF's competitor, KMA ("Keep Millions Advised"), also located in Shenandoah, Iowa, and also operated by a seed company, the Earl E. May Seed and Nursery Co. The station went on the air in 1925. It developed a considerable staff, and Earl May himself was the chief announcer (in 1926 he won a Radio Digest gold cup for "the world's most popular announcer"). KMA's auditorium (known as "Mayfair") seated 1,000 people. Those who are musically inclined will find at the end of the postcards the words and music to a KMA song, "Mayfair," taken from a station promotional booklet issued circa 1928. At that time KMA operated on 760 kc. with 1,000 watts (later 960 with 5,000 watts).
• Iowa - Views of station KFNF, Shenandoah, Iowa, one of the most famous American farm stations. Owned by the Henry Field Seed Co., "The Friendly Farmer Station" came on the air on February 18, 1924 and went full time four years later. The frequency was 1130 kc., 500 watts. President and General Manager Henry Field was also the chief announcer, and in the early days the employees of the seed company did double duty on air. The station was sold in 1949 but maintained its farm identity until it was sold to a religious organization in 1976. A KFNF poem went as follows: "Guest you are welcome here, Be at your ease; / Look around when you're ready, Go wherever you please / Happy to tell you about, Such as we've got, / From fish in the pool, To flowers in the lot, / You don't have to thank us, Nor laugh at our jokes, / Be cheerful, come often, You're one of the folks!"
