I'd love to operate a contest as "E5E" ... most likely THEE shortest callsign on the planet :-)


Be careful what you wish for, you might get it. The "H" in W7WHY has given me grief for years. I don't know how many times when sending it at 35+ wpm it gets busted to WSY. I finally slowed that part of the callsign down to about 15 WPM and don't have as much problem. I think the sudden change of speed makes people listen more or something. I remenber there used to be a call, W5HSE, or something like that. That'd be a nightmare. 73
