      Interesting thought Holger!              ML> Mike Luther N117C at 1:117/100               HG> For a moment I thought that you had a new call sign, maybe you do have.        HG> The one I recall was W5WQN and I haven't read anywhere that USA would        HG> have started using the N1 prefix.               HG> 73 de Sam, OH0NC               HG> aka Holger              Both are correct! I am Net N117C for Net 117 here! As well as still the same       W5WQN you know! When posting in Fido per the HUGE issues with the law       enforcement folks here and around areas back decades ago when I wound up as       Net Control for Net 117 I was told if I posted from the 1:117/100 machine I       had to use in the signature N117C and could not use anything else! At that       time there were HUGE HUGE issues with pornography and other nasties that       actually were the only way to finance the telco LD charges even for 20 miles       away here. One morning I woke up and out on the front porch were a whole pile       of computers and equipment1 It was the complete Net Control stuff for the       then Net Control of Net 117! Next came the law boys! They KNEW that I had       NOTHING to do with all this, but they sort of forced me to take over the Net       Control position. And among LOTS of agreed this and that which I have       absolutely kept track of and logged to this day, that was one of the 'orders',       chuckle.              Mike Luther as N117C at 1:117/100                            ---        * Origin: BV HUB CLL(979)696-3600 (1:117/100)    |
