I remember one year I got wild. I used the name Throckmorton. It
almost always got a repeat request.
Some guys never did get it.
I remember calling W3XU, an old schoolmate from U Penn when he was at
Wharton and I was at Penn
Vet school, at W3ABT and later N3KZ. I called him very qrq and gave him
the name. He was the only
one who didn't skip a beat. He came right back and said Thanks
Throcky. LOL
After the contest, some guys told me that it was too long to fit into
their logging s/w.
Other guys, every now and then, will remind me of the time I was
Throckmorton.
Sort of like when we used to have the DASH on 75m. Lots of OT guys
remember
one my exchanges: 599 soup [signal report and what you had for dinner].
And I remember K1KI's cat's name. heh heh heh
One year I used the name Zdo, which is the first 3 letters of my work
email address.
That got lots of repeat requests too. Hey...contesting is fun, right!
