Yes, just like the bio (https://qrz.com/db/N7WS) says; been here 70 years. I
like to say I was conceived here, since my parents met and married in Tucson,
but were actually in San Diego when I was born. They moved back when I was a
young child and I've never left. No reason to, unless I want a chip shot to
SV/A, instead of,
I'll-never-live-long-enough-to-work-this-guy-through-the-east-coast.

Hey, and it looks like you are really in 7-land, Wes!
OTOH, I'm the "real W7OX", live in a suburb of Los Angeles and have not lived
in 7-land (OR/WA) since 1960; farthest North was Palo Alto when I was at
Stanford 1963-65. But 20 years ago we considered retiring to Portland very
seriously, so I used the Gates to get back my original call -- W7UOX -- and
then shorten it to W7OX.
I like having the call for old times sake. But I do wish the prefixes had call
area geographic meaning as they did in olden days.
73, Phil W7OX
