"I want to learn about vanity call signs, why would I want one? What do they represent?"
A vanity call is one that is self selected rather than being the next in order assigned by FCC. The main reason for getting one is ....vanity. Many select a vanity call that represents their name or initials. Some because the call comes close to spelling a word that has significance for them. Some because it represents an area of interest. In my case I was assigned G3WYC by UK GPO back in 1967. I chose the vanity call K3WYC when I became licensed in USA. 73, Andy k3wyc ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
