KOIT
KOIT (96.5 FM) is a commercial adult contemporary radio station licensed to San Francisco, California. The station has studios along Junipero Serra Boulevard in Daly City, and transmits from Sutro Tower in San Francisco, with a power output of 24,000 watts effective radiated power. The signal can be received throughout the Bay Area with relative ease. There is also a booster station in Martinez, California called KOIT-3 that improves the coverage in the Diablo Valley area. KOIT is owned by Salt Lake City-based Bonneville International. From 2007 through 2017, the station was owned by Entercom. As part of its merger with CBS Radio, the company was required to divest four of its radio stations in San Francisco in order stay within ownership caps. KOIT was placed in a trust and was subsequently reacquired by Bonneville, which had owned the station from 1975 until the sale to Entercom. KOIT broadcasts in HD.

Koit (song)
''Koit'' (Estonian: "Dawn") is a song by Tõnis Mägi, made popular during the Estonian Singing Revolution. It is often seen as Mägi's signature song. The song is a protest song, promoting the aims of Estonians looking to secede from the Soviet Union. The lyric is quite allusive, with references to a "new dawn" breaking. The final lines, however, make Mägi's point explicit, as he sings (in translation): ''Land, land of my fathers, so sacred a land'' ''Which must now be free'' ''Our song, our song of freedom will sound'' ''And you will see a free Estonia.'' The song is frequently performed at the Estonian Laulupidu The Estonian Song Festival (in Estonian: ''laulupidu'', ) is one of the largest choral events in the world, a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. It is held every five years in July on the Tallinn Song Festival Gro ... and other patriotic events. References Estonian songs Year of song missing Songs in Estonian {{Es ...
