   That Tak-Tenna looks neat.   
      
   In an earlier post You mention Your GMRS  Callsign.   
   It made me think of my old secondary license call WA9WSB.   
      
   I wanted to keep my original KY call,and did until no one in my. 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.
