The ARRL Info Server has the complete text of the FCC's Order on vanity 
callsigns (file is about 25K).  Send a message to info at arrl.org with the 
following text in the body of the message (no subject line needed):

   SEND PR93-305.TXT

To get a complete list of available files, add these lines to the message:

   HELP
   INDEX
   QUIT

If you have FTP access, files can be obtained from oak.oakland.edu by 
anonymous FTP in the files area pub/hamradio/arrl/infoserv.  Retrieve the 
file index.txt in this directory for a complete listing of available files 
listed by subdirectory with descriptions. 


73!

(message me directly if this doesn't work for you and I'll send the FCC text 
to your address from here)

Subject: How many hams?
Message-ID: <5TNZZc1w165w at wile.thetech.org>

Well I can only speak for Indonesia and probably Thailand.  Only a small 
percentage of those licensed hams have HF licenses.  In Indonesia only
YB calls can use full power and all bands.  YC is 150w and no 20m.  All
others (except YE=YB, YF=YC) are VHF only and/or HF domestic only (no 
DXing allowed).

Subject: PED for the speed challenged
Message-ID: <98NZZc1w165w at wile.thetech.org>

I have found a neat trick for the CW speed challenged attempting to use
PED.  Slowing down the cpu speed down after the program has started 
running will cause the sending speeds to run approx 5-15wpm.  Just 
starting 
the program in non-turbo mode does not work as the program appears to do 
cpu
speed check just before sending signals (not upon program execution).  I 
hope this will help the speed challenged like me.  It sure beats code 
tapes!
