Hi Jeff,

> Did anyone else hear 3D2CB/r changing callsigns back and forth to 3D2WC/r this
> morning at about 1039-1042z this morning on 1828?

Every time I heard him ID he was WC, but I didn't listen 
steadily.

Last week about a dozen people worked him and called him CB when he 
was clearly signing WC at the end of every transmission. The packet 
spots all said CB, yet for over a one hour period he never once 
signed 3D2CB!

> I understand that AFTER 1100z it was pretty much all 3D2WC/r..  Very confusing
> for those who worked a new one this morning though......

He replied to a lot of stations who were calling him, and they never 
came back...they just kept calling.
