Family lived       in the QTH anymore.       I learned I could trade in the K4ZIQ call for a One by Three 9 Land call and       was issued W9ODR.       Got a W call instead of a K call issued to me.              Later I learned that The Friendly Country Cousin was allowing Hams to use their       Callsign when they moved into a different Area. (after sending a 610 to them       about the change of address.              Now I wish thatI had kept my original Call Sign I was issued as a Novice.       The Hams around my area know me as K 4 Zero Intelligence Quotentient.       73 de Ed W9ODR . .       (Old Dirty Rat) Now       --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 18/200 102/401 103/1 705 104/119 105/81 106/201 120/616       SEEN-BY: 124/5016 128/187 129/305 153/7715 154/10 30 50 110 700 214/22       SEEN-BY: 218/0 1 215 601 700 720 840 850 860 880 900 940 220/20 90       SEEN-BY: 221/6 226/18 30 44 50 227/114 229/110 111 114 200 206 300       SEEN-BY: 229/307 310 312 317 400 426 428 470 664 700 705 266/512 291/111       SEEN-BY: 292/854 301/1 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280       SEEN-BY: 712/848 902/26 2320/0 105 3634/12 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 2320/105 154/10 301/1 218/700 229/426           |
