New Call Sign

It’s time for a change. I have changed my call sign. My new call sign is PAØK. Why? Because I could not get back to my real old first call sign PAØPSY which I did have for 34 years. After my change in 2010 in PC4T it was not possible to get the PAØ prefix anymore. Now the rules have changed. Only new PAØ can be released. Not the old ones. Because I do like the short call sign and there were only 2 left with the one letter suffix in the PAØ range. So that’s why it became this.

    Nou niet weer terug naar PC4T he! PA0K is een geweldig mooie callsign. Ik zal mijn blogroll even aanpassen. Gefeliciteerd. Bas, Dah Di Dah.

      Hallo Bas, ik stam nog uit de tijd dat er alleen maar PAØ calls werden uitgegeven. In het begin keek ik natuurlijk erg op tegen die oud gedienden. Toen ik zelf mijn PAØ licentie haalde (toen nog A genoemd) was ik ape trots. Na mijn PC4T aanvraag dacht ik: ik ga ooit nog wel een keer terug, maar werden de regels veranderd. Afijn terug naar de old timers prefix PAØ want ja, dat ben ik natuurlijk ook. ;-) 73 Paul

    Hallo Paul, ik heb je call en stations beschrijving in mijn Blog list aangepast. Ik zag dat je Larry W2LJ er op attendeerde. Veel succes met nieuwe call. 73, Bert
