What the hell is WA4009SWL?
Something you get from a box of Rice Crispies?
A mental institution ID? A redneck playing 007? Doesn't make any sense to me. Jari Savolainen |

A mental institution ID? A redneck playing 007? Doesn't make any sense to me. Jari Savolainen Interesting that this is the topic of your first post to RRS. It's a shortwave group ID. Others in this NG use them, but I think I can understand why you chose to harass me for having one. Shortwave group ID? My God, this is the most idiotic thing I've ever heard. Imagine the following: Phone rings, WA4009SWL answers: WA4009SWL. Caller: This is IQ0001SWL, WA4009SWL do you copy? WA4009SWL: Roger. Caller: Seems like Ma Bell is up and running today. WA4009SWL: Roger. Caller: 73's WA4009SWL. WA4009SWL: 73's IQ0001SWL. Phone rings again, WA4009SWL answers: WA4009SWL. Caller: This is the FCC. You've been sighted tuning shortwave frequencies with your Freeplay radio. Is this accurate? WA4009SWL: Roger. Caller: In that case, can you hold out your shortwave license against the kitchen window so that our reception inspectors can see it with their binoculars. WA4009SWL: Roger. Caller: Put your underwear on, for heaven's sake! WA4009SWL: Roger. Caller: Everything seems to be in order aside from your appearance. You can proceed with your tuning now. And keep your underwear on, fer chrissakes man! WA4009SWL: Roger. Caller: 73's. WA4009SWL: 73's. Phone rings for the third time, WA4009SWL answers: WA4009SWL. Caller: This is your mother, stupid. WA4009SWL: Rog...ehh, hi mom! Caller: The FCC just called. Put your underwear on, stupid. WA4009SWL: Yes mom! Caller: Good bye, stupid! WA4009SWL: 73's. What a hoot. Only in America.

Jari Savolainen It's one of those *special* callsigns, y'know, like the special PhDs you can get just by filling out a form and mailing it in. Same deal -- you fill out a form, mail it in, and you get your call sign. So when you call someone on your shortwave receiver -- work with me on this -- you have some way of identifying yourself as a shortwave listener to the station you have called. -- Eric F. Richards, "As with Buchanan, you can ask Keyes what time it is, and the answer will include a withering indictment of moral depravity and possibly end with his head igniting. And as with Buchanan, you are never quite sure whether to stand up and cheer or run for the hills." -- Time magazine, 2/7/2000 |

Jari Savolainen "Jari"....care to comment on the fact that you are posting through the same news server in Texas as 'Maragaret Butt" is? What about all the other sockpuppets you seem to be using? All are coming from the satx.rr.com server. There is only ONE real, verifiable identity here using that same server. That is "AL" KA5JGV Aburzynski Any relation? mike |
