Besides you will run into a storm of protest from anyone holding call signs
that are 1x3 or shorter. All sequentially assigned call signs that are 1x3,
1x2, and 2x1 are gone. Therefore anyone not eligible for an Advanced class
2x2 or an Extra 2x2 beginning with A would either have to settle for a 2x3
call or find a vacant vanity call. In the 1x2s and 2x1s these are almost no
vanity calls available.


Indeed - I nabbed KD1S at just the right time (Formerly KD1NR, and
before that N1MPQ).

But at least I kept the region identifier the same. Friend of mine ended
up with a KH6 callsign. He's always wanted to move to Hawaii and that's
as close as he'll get for now.
