Who was harmed by the assignment of those
vanity callsigns?


For the record, none of the club callsigns I have ever
trusteed for have been "vanity" callsigns.


Ooops - looks like I was mistaken about the vanity aspect.


If they were not vanity callsigns, then they were all sequentially
issued, right?


Yes, nine (9) sequentially issued for Hawaii.


Not a dozen, and not vanity.

?Here's a query that I
ran in 1998 or 1999. ?Note the PO Box #... no wonder Jeff was working
hard to disassociate himself from the guy that hijacked his PO Box.


How do you know the PO Box was "hijacked"?

So this is from almost a decade ago.

Since the above does not, for some strange reason, give a return for
KD6HZ in
its own right, everyone may be wondering who KD6HZ is. ?So I
searched. ?The
database said the call has been changed to KH6HZ. ?And who is KH6HZ?
Well,
none other than:


HamCallTM Query Results:
?KH6HZ


Michael P. Deignan
License Class: Advanced


So the guy changed his call a couple of times. Is that not allowed by
the rules?

------------------


I will reword my questions, then:


Why?


Because they are not vanity calls.

?Deignan has been busted,


"busted"? How? What was the penalty?

and your support of him is noted.


What support?

I am simply trying to get to the bottom of these alleged violations.
So far, it turns out
that at least some of the information supplied here was incorrect. It
turns out that:

- the disputed callsigns were not vanity callsigns,
- FCC requires a mailing address, not residence or station location
- there is no limit on the number of clubs that can name an individual
as trustee
- the person in question was not an Extra when all this happened.



1) KD1HZ, 2) KD6HZ, 3) KH6HZ ?(Sequential??? ?Highly UNLIKLEY)


Are any of those callsigns in dispute?



4) WH6DDR, 5) WH6DDQ, 6) WH6DDP, 7) WH6DDM, 8) WH6DDN, 9) ?WH6DDO,
10) ?WH6DCX, 11) ?WH6DCY, 12) KB1CCE,


Nine callsigns, not a dozen. Are any of them current?

13) WE1RD MICHAEL P DEIGNAN REPEATER ASSOCIATION


That one is current - and the trustee is not Mr. Deignan.

So what's the problem?

Jim, N2EY


Apparently none if you're a 20wpm code-tested Extra.
