Hi,

with one HAM I had this interesting exchange:

DK3VN DE SM5EIT DE SM5EIT KK  SM5EIT 599-49-49-49 
DK3VN UR 599-?80?-?80?-?80? DE SM5EIT KKK/+'5VV  SM5EIT QSL DE DK3VN QRZ? 

Hmm .. is he eighty or not? May be he don't know his real age??? ~:-)

And watch the callsign! A new station shows up in the RTTY contesting
scene:

CQ JARTS DE DK3VN DK3VN CQ 
DE DK3WN DK3WN  KVVJV  DK3WN 599-49-49-49 DK3WN 
DK3VN TU UR 599-35-35 DE DK3WN KMXG  DK3WN QSL DE DK3VN QRZ?

Believe me, my eyes were wide open! He called & worked me on three bands.
The call is real!
