If you want to win, or be in the running to win, use K1LZ.  It's  better 
known, and more important, the zone you send will match the call.
 
If you just want to have fun (and you still might win!), use  K0DXC.   Just 
don't sign "1"  .

Ok..

First off, this is actually pretty stupid. I mean, yeah, I  need LOTS of 
help... 
But I'm going to ask for insight on an Amateur Radio  subject this time. 


This weekend in the IARU I will be SOAB HP at  K1LZ in Boston... Krassy has 
opened up his station to me, but this is my  first single op from his place.

He's given me the option of using my  own call, K0DXC, if I want to.  Or I 
can 
use K1LZ.

This being  said... Which call should I use??? I'm completely lost, and I 
can't  
decide. K0DXC is long as crap, and K1LZ is a short, good, recognized call.  
Call 
recognition is HUGE, and I just don't have it with K0DXC. All logical  
explanations (that I've come up with) point to using K1LZ. But, with  
K0DXC... I 
could actually operate seriously in a contest using my OWN  call! I've 
never 
actually done that before! I've never been "LOUD" as  K0DXC...

Any thoughts? Once again, sorry for the waste of  space.

GL to all, and I bet even a few at WRTC in Moscow will read  this! I hope 
to work 
you guys, whatever call I may use.

Cal,  K0DXC/0
(K0DXC/1 tomorrow)

Oh yeah, and I plan on being CW only this  weekend. Yeah, I do have a ton 
of fun 
with SSB... But I have reasons for  sticking with the Morse side of things 
this  
weekend.
