I live in the Holy part of Florida, Middleburg. I have a circular driveway and one morning each week I conduct a "Toot-n-Tell" service. You drive through, roll down your window, tell me your sins, drop few coins in the bucket as you depart. Seems to me this qualifies as a new entity? (Just the land inside the circle) Maybe special call like UN1WX/P. Calls would be limited to 6, 60 (Channel one only), and 160 meters PSK-31 (no brags please) and SSTV. I would even allow an occasional guest operator. (Special considerations given to graduates of Jerry Farwells' School in Lynchburg, Va. and family members of Tammy Faye.) I would be seeking the ARRL's blessing on this so any honest advice on procedures to make this come true is welcome. I have read the DXCC rules but still a little unclear on the proper procedures. Oh, I did forget one thing. Last week during my service, I went into my radio room to get one of my congregation members change for a quarter (25c) so he could make a donation. I bumped my desk and my radio fell to the floor. It was broken. My friend has unable to repair the radio. So I will need a new one donated.
Hope to hear your "TOOT" soon! A possible NEW one!
