I shared this with the locals on packet and they seemed to enjoy it..
Me : with shiney new 1 X 2 answering rare DX on lower end of 20.
DVK F-4 Key (was not listening to the output)
DX : Thank you QRZ
Me: F4
DX: ending LIMA FI NI
Me: Silence (no Lima here)
DX: Ending LIMA FIVE NINE...OVER
Me: Silence (DUH)
DX: QRZ CALLSIGN
Me: F4
DX: NOVEMBER THREE ALPHA DELTA LIMA FIVE NINE OVER OVER
ME: Trying to figure out who in the hell is bootlegging my OLD call. Then it
suddenly dawns on me whats happening and I calmly hit F2 (DVK EXCHANGE) and
sheepishly spin the dial. I hadn't reprogrammed the DVK with the new call
since the last contest. For a split second there it was Twilight Zone time...
