Heh heh... maybe we can start a 'minor revolt' against pre-populated

Chen and Bob got me to thinking about previous callsign holders. I
actually have a QSL card from 1932 by the original holder of W9ILY,
Heinz Schaedler who lived in Aurora, Illinois about 35 miles from
where I now live.
Small
world, isn't it? He was using a "TNT" transmitter and an S38A receiver.
Perhaps I'll give Heinz a try next time.....
