>It has been possible to apply two-letter-suffix "vanity calls" in Finland
>since 1.4.1997. Old call areas have no geographical meaning since 1.4.1997.
>So OH1NOA can now go to Lappland and operate as OH1NOA (ex OH9NOA or
OH1NOA/9).
>Many "old timers" who had moved and applied a new 3-letter-suffix call sign,
>they can now return to use their old 2-letter-suffix calls (for example
>OH3MMM will now use OH1VR or OH2BA when operating from ex-OH3, he changed
>OH3MMM to OH0MMM). Price for new vanity call is about 400 USD.
