John, Thanks for the notice. I look forward to trying a sweep on SSB & PSK.

I see the AIRFORCE call sign is shown above as "WAF". Is it possible that should be "W4F", consistent with the other service branches represented?

Please clarify whether or not that is a misprint.

Cheers,
David / N2PQW

It is going to be K4M For the Marines...W4M was taken..73

 

I'll try for a listen. I can't transmit on any of those bands yet. I'm not good enough with code (I only know half the characters) and there isn't time to find a test site to upgrade to general. Have fun with it.

 

QRZ does not specify clean sweep = certificate

John...
Your QRZ website W4S and the graphics are truly outstanding! Another box of Kleenex into the trash can... What else can I say. It's nice to see that there are people still out there who know the meaning and importance of Memorial Day.
God bless our troops and those who have paid the ultimate price.

Very respectfully,
