Correct. The actuarial tables are relentless.

W0EX will be available for reassignment in February 2006.

Cool. Why let a spiffy 1x2 call like that go to waste?

Hmmm? Now there would be a reason to upgrade.

Wherever you are, Dick, it's "SOS" here on planet Earth...RIP old
buddy...

73

Steve, K4YZ

Steve getting lonely? Sends an SOS to a departed amateur communicator?

No dweebelet, Dick was a PROFESSIONAL radio operator who happened to
also have a ham ticket.

Nope, he was an amateur.

Only an amateur would claim that they intentionally send Morse Code/CW
poorly in an effort to keep unworthy No-Code Technician's with a
computer code reader from copying it.

A professional would simply encrypt the transmission.

Col. Vincent can attest.
