Does anybody know QSL info and actually
addresses of KS4BH - Swan Island (worked 16.7.1972) and VQ9M/F - Farquahar
Island (worked 28.10.1972). KS4BH gave QSL via K3RLY but this callsign is not in
CB or HamCall... Thanks!
Sorry, but K3RLY is now S.K. and I have no other
information - VQ9M was via N6PAA, I think it was his
home callsign, but if that's correct now I don't know because of the
vanity - should maybe be called ''insanity'' - callsigns...
I have two e-mail addresses for N6PAA: [EMAIL P
K3RLY belonged to Belford D. Kellam of 35 Allview Drive, Ellicott City,
Maryland. Searching the net, I found a genealogical reference to a
gentleman of this name passing away in 1972.

As I told Steve directly, the operator at KS4BH was Leo Garcia - W6MTE. That call is no longer listed, and a name search for Leo Garcia came up empty.

Bud, K3RLY, moved to Virginia in the early 1980s and changed his call
to one with the #4 in it. I lost track of him in about 1984, but I did
later hear that he was SK.
I have the KS4BH QSL from 1972 and the QSL Manager was K3RLY as you stated,
but the card showed that the operator was Leo G
K3RLY is not a SK, unless very recently. Just a couple of years ago I received
confirmation for KS4DX of which he managed. No QSLs left of course, but
a written note of confirmation on a sheet of paper. K3RLY is now KC4DWI.
The person to contact is:
Belford D. Kellam, KC4DWI

Osten,
You'll note that he worked VQ9M in 1972, so N6PAA
would not have been the QSL manager for that operation, since N#XXX callsigns
were not issued until 1978. N6PAA is not a vanity callsign, so your
comments regarding vanity calls are curious.
