Can it be done better?

Chow can i do something like that:

SELECT
rfc.radioid,
rank,
CONCAT_WS(' ', rfc.fac_callsign, rfc.fac_service, rfc.fac_frequency) AS
callsign,
earth_distance_miles(zipt.latitude,longitude,lat,l on) AS dist
FROM radio_stations_tbl AS rfc, zipcodes_tbl AS zipt
WHERE zipt.zip=92627 AND dist<50
ORDER BY rank DESC, dist;

earth_distance_miles i a function. I'm getting errors trying to execute
this query.

I could do like this:

ORDER BY rank DESC, dist;

but is it not cosing distance to be calculated twice?
