Default ARRL Now Only Wants No Code Hams - Holding Midnight Exams

NEWINGTON, CT, Feb 9, 2007 -- As new Amateur Radio Service rules phase
in Friday, February 23,

You realize that the 23rd, when you divide 2 by 3, you'll get 666, the
devil's area code? Sounds like a bad omen to me.... :-)

Sounds kind of hellish to me.

Sorry, that is a SERIOUS FACTUAL ERROR!!!

Dividing 2 by 3 results in the decimal fraction 0.66666666666666...

That is NOT the Bible's reference to "the number of the beast."

The number of the beast is 616, not 666.
