Not correct. "73" (singular) translates to "best wishes" (plural). 73s
would thus translate to "best wisheses", which definitely reduces
intelligibility.
Same tired, erroneous argument that is trotted out by the wanna-be
pedants every year or so about this time when they have nothing better
to do than try to prove how "intelligent" they are! LOL!
You can send best wishes to more than one person at once.
And you can say it more than once to the same person.
Therefore it is prefectly fine to say 73s.
73s to all in this newsgroup!
