- I would like to run a situation past the group: Ham A enters the WPX SSB. He has a very common prefix. Ham B is a former no code Tech who has a new 5 WPM Extra license. As many of these new 5 WPM Ext

- Yes, it's legal to do it. I know, because I asked the FCC about the "borrowing callsigns" practice now commonly in use in WPX, and got email responses confirming that it's OK (no, I didn't try to fi

- Stu's proposed change to CQ WPX rules would appear to eliminate the use of Club calls in WPX Contests. I am pretty sure that is not what was intended, but this factor needs to be considered if any ch

- Even requiring it to be the operator or 'station owner' wouldn't stop callsign borrowing in the states. Since the fcc doesn't require a separate 'station license' any more anyone could own any statio

- Personally, I think the callsign borrowing thing is much ado about nothing. To quote Charlie Sheen in Ferris Bueller's Day Off: "You could ditch." If there's nothing stopping Ham A from doing it, the

- Kelly, I have to agree. Callsign borrowing leads to more interesting prefixes in WPX contest. I had a surreal experience in 2004 when I was operating in WPX SSB as P40Y from Aruba. I was being QRMed
