Topband: VE1ZZ Nite

[Mike Smith VE9AA]

p.s.- Tree, If you do make it into its own (real) contest, one thing to
think about is probably NOT using "VE1ZZ" in the title. (just in the
description on the website)

 

A 2-letter call VE call like that, unless picked up by one of his
kids(unlikely), is apt to be reissued very fast, in about 365 days +/- to
someone else.

 

Call it "Jack/ZZ",  "Nova Scotia Jack" "160m Jack", "LowBand Jack" or
something.

I never get on for the PRE-Stews(just the main STEW), but if you were to
rename it to something honouring VE1ZZ, I would make a point to show up.
(Maybe even make it into its own "real" contest, as many QRV today (like me)
did not know W1BB, but DID know Jack/ZZ

 

RIP Jack, VE1-Zulu Zulu

We could rename the PreStew (which starts in one minute).
