You've made this assertion a couple of times now. In the case of Washington
section, which of the new sections is considered the "original"? Here's the
announcement of the split in the April, 1989 issue of QST (accessible to
ARRL members only, I'm afraid):
http://p1k.arrl.org/cgi-bin/topdf.cgi?id=82590&pub=qst
The announcement begins "The Washington Section has been divided into two
ARRL Sections, Eastern Washington and Western Washington, effective February
6, 1989." Nothing in the announcement suggests that one of those two new
sections is the old section renamed.
