I enjoyed reading Jun's response about "Doglo" and its meaning
as "a skelton, on flags of pirates." I guess I will change my name
to Tom Doglo to attract lots of JA's in the pileups!
Dear Jun, just so you won't be teased by any more of the USA
guys, the English spelling for "Doglo" is s k e l e t o n. I ought to
know, people have been mispronouncing my name for years! HI!
Thanks for the update on PED.
73, Tom Skelton ("Doglo") WB4IUX
ps: I like the name "Pirate Software"; I wish he wouldn't change
it!

Do not worry ! It was really made by Mas, JE3MAS. He has been at JA3YKC,
our university contest club. There we used amps named "Doglo", meaning
a skelton, on flags of pirates. (Have some of you seen photos of Doglos ??)
So, that was why some of JA3YKC named their home brew ones " YKC pirate
products". Same reason.
As someones has been afraid, he will not sign "pirate products" anymore.

p.s. Mas got married several weeks ago. Congs!!!
