You may also be surprised that Florida is issuing license plates with ham
calls on them to people who are not hams. Several people have seen these
plates with their ham calls on them. Life is interesting. 73 de Tom Manning,

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Call Sign and Sounds like a Ham , NOT
I found something interesting and Thought Would share, I heard a
Ham talking as He was driving through the Chicago Metro area on a
large Repeater System , and when I am near the Computer , I Just
look up the Call to find more info about the person to see If We
might have something in common to talk about
I looked up His call WD9XAD On http://www.qrz.com/ and
http://hamcall.net/call nothing Found , Sure looks like a Older Call
and the Person talked like a Ham
But now days who knows so I went to the FCC Site
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/reports7/
Top Search for Call sign Well it came up But NOT A Ham radio call, I
doubt very much if it was the Person with the Non ham lic using it,
But I found it interesting and Nice to learn something as We get
older, it's just remembering it is the Problem Back in the Old Days
We just took people at their word , But with the Internet I find
things are not always what We think .
