A friend of mine (who isn't on this list) worked a station during the WPX that he's pretty sure was giving his callsign as VC44X. He commented to me that he listened for quite a long time and is quit
As a follow up, most of the responses I got back indicated that they'd worked VC44X as well, and a couple of folks told me that it is a legal callsign. Thanks to everyone who sent me info. 73, David,

Bear in mind the the OLPC machine isn't really something you can go to a store and buy. It's a purpose-built machine intended to provide technology in areas where they might not otherwise have access
The mice and keyboards usually have a tranceiver unit, which usually plugs into a USB port on the computer. Each mouse/keyboard and tranceiver pair with each other, and will only recognize the paired
I carried an Icom 706MkIIG in carry-on on my trip to ZF last summer. I don't think they even looked at it twice, even though it certainly showed up on the xray (I peeked!) -- 73, David, K2DBK k2dbk.c

For what it's worth, I have 2 Dell keyboards that are within 5 feet of each other; we've never had a problem with the keyboards and bases getting confused. They are indeed 27Mhz, and if I look, I can
I had problems pretty much constantly, not only with looking at the scores but with N1MM trying to submit my info. I'm guessing that the good side to all of this is that it means that more people are
Not that I'm in favor of the petition (I'm not), but the answer to the first part of #1 is that a lot of sailors do get their ham tickets and have ham radio aboard for when "all else fails" (or just
