    VL>> 73 72   
    HG> 72?   
      
   VL> Code "72", meaning "Wishing you Good QRP"   
      
   TNX fer info. Not running QRP myself I didn't know that.   
      
   Many, many years ago, I started to use GL (Good Luck), when I finished   
   contest qso's, and it has become a common shorthand since.   
      
   It wasn't in any list of abbreviations then, and even today it's still   
   missing from many.
