[David G3YYD]

The G3YYD call has been with me now since 1969 and unless I give it up then
will be with me until I become SK. This is known as a full licence top dog
of UK licensing as there are lower privilege licensees: foundation and
intermediate.

The M7T has to be re-applied for every 3 years and I have to meet certain
conditions as regard my performance in a number of contests over those 3
years to be able to retain it. If I don't retain it then it is available
after 2 years for others who qualify to apply for. Only full licensees
qualify. There are 520 of these 1by1 callsign available and not all are in
use.

By the way I found out that M7P was active as SB15 entry not a band I worked
in my AB entry!

Just curious about something, David. Do you have both calls assigned
permanently?  Here in the Colonies only one permanent license is allowed at
a time, but one can get a temporary authorization for a special call sign
for a limited time. 

And thanks again for giving us 2Tone. A marvelous piece of work!
