This is interesting. Assuming for the moment that he IS operating from Guantanamo Bay, one wonders if he (KG4WW?) got permission from whomever it is on the base that issues calls to add the extra 4. However, this does bring up an interesting legal questions, since only KG4 2x2 calls are allocated by the FCC to the US Military for Guantanamo. And a US prefixed call like this is not normally allocated to the US Amateur Service (and yes, I know there've been some exceptions over the years, such as some of the calls out around the '84 Olympics... I'm not talking about those). I seem to remember seeing calls of this nature allocated to aircraft and TV transmitter translaters and transponders and such. All I can say is... WFWL, and if this character is legit, he's going to have some explaining to do after the contest! 73 -----Original Message----- From: john [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, March 25, 2006 3:51 PM To: Ron Notarius WN3VAW; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; dx-chat@njdxa.org Subject: RE: [DX-CHAT] KG44WW Nope...
