urp I have wondered for twenty years now how Wayne Green has managed to remain W2NSD/1 (I think thats it) for so long. No hostility is intended here, I have been reading (and paying for) his rather right wing technical/political magazine for the same twenty years. Hmm. Yes I think that is related to ham call sign changes. Richard Loken

I don't understand; FCC only changes a call if you request it these days. In the old days they only changed your district if you moved your primary station license. An up to date mailing address and a secondary station in portable operation would keep your call. I've only been at it about ten years, but mostly in New England, in two license classes, in ten locations, with the same call always. What's confusing? A call sign should say something about the licensee? (de WA2YBA/1). -- yba%mit-heracles@mit-mc.ARPA UUCP: decvax!mit-athena!yba
