[CQ-Contest] WRTC2018 Stations to use old DDR call sign block

[Ron Notarius W3WN]

One small pity.  I was really hoping that the call Y97FM would have been in
play.

(Local FM broadcaster on 96.9 MHz once had the call WHYW and Y97-FM was
their on-air slogan/nick name)

Hope all do well.  If I get on at all, it will be for a very brief period of
time, as I have a public service event all weekend, and have to somehow
squeeze in an appearance at the annual family reunion!

73, ron w3wn

And I had given up hope of ever getting any more of the old East German
Prefixes!
