Okay....I give up.
I've read a couple of responses so far and am more confused than when Bill
first posed the question.
It seems to me the guy Bill needs the fill from is the guy who now owns the
frequency and would be passing along his info the the guy who called over
Bill.
All Bill needs to do is QSX for the appropriate exchange info needed.
Am I missing something here?
