Not to be the bearer of bad news, but anyone located anywhere in the lower
48 can claim any unused call for the lower 48 as a 'vanity' call. Yes, we
have a couple of '8' calls here in the Rochester, NY area. If I wanted jrh
in my call and couldn't find one available as a '2', I could apply for (and
get, if it isn't assigned) a '3', '1', '0', or whatever. KG6 is now a
California call. KG6AAY is assigned in California; it used to be the
amateur radio station at NavCommSta Guam (receiver site). If you're
confused, think how confused us old timers are )

73 from Rochester, NY
