That horse left the barn 50 years ago, when we were allowed to keep our
calls when we moved. YWe have to count on our memory of who's where. I
know that K6LL is in AZ, K7SV is in VA, is in MN, and so on. Although I
started out in '55 in WV with W8FNI, FCC gave me W9NEC when I moved to
Chicago in '64, I was intermittently active there, making a living,
running my own small biz, I got K9YC as a 1x2 after getting back on the
air in 2003 after long periods of inactivity, started establishing my
identity with it, kept it when I moved to W6 in 2006.
There are close to a dozen members of NCCC who kept east coast/midwest
calls for the same reason, some without that identity who took W6 calls.
73, Jim K9YC
