US Call Sign Use at PEI


 

Gentlemen

I asked the question "which is correct? Call/VY2 or VY2/Call.

Ken pointed me to this:
"Canada and the US have a peculiar and unique reciprocal operating agreement. Hams have the privileges that they have in their home country, but not exceeding those of the top-end license in the other country. Also, usually, Canadian and US hams suffix their callsign, not prefix them as is usually done. For example, VE5STX operating in North Dakota would be VE5STX/W0; WB0STX operating in Saskatchewan would be WB0STX/VE5."
–?

So, that only leaves Peter to decide his call at PEI!

I'm going to set up QRZ.com for W6ABM/VY2.

I have taken care of my VY2 listing on LoTW. Will take care of QRZ and (maybe) pre-populate a CQ POTA de WT4BT/VY2 on the KX2 later today.
Do we want to discuss a “Grocery List” at some point prior to arrival to do a first-fill of the larder before the main shop? Or just wait until all are in-house?

I thought I'd pick up milk, bread, butter, coffee...etc enroute. With seven of us, face-to-face
decisions about our second grocery run would likely be easier.

What say all?

I'm attempting the LoTW registration. Something about my request is being
treated as an error.? I've done this several times before...but each time seems
to have some challenge to overcome.

Out from under the thunderheads for a bit, more expected later today.

2nd grocery discussion at Lodge OK by me.
Ev, what “strength" of milk are you planning on getting? Lyn needs/prefers flat-free or 1% (max). If you are getting stronger stuff, we can pick up a bit of the low-test on our way in.
Any coffee is AOK also as long as it does not have “additional flavoring” ;>). I may be old-fashioned but "Hot and Black” is about all I can handle.

Mac (and by proxy; Lynn)

Ev, I encountered the same problems. Even went so far as to contact the “Help? Desk”. He wanted to tap into my computer to see what was going on (I told him ”that is not happening”. I had tried to add it as a “New Entity” for DXCC purposes but it kept wanting other verification or something.

I wound up just adding the new callsign under my main call. Went through inside 24 hrs. I told Bart Jahnke (from LoTW) that I would handle any DXCC problems and/or uploads manually.

Got the TQ6 and installed on both logging computers AOK.

I drink coffee…dark and with no identifiable additives! ?I don’t look down on those who have addictions to any additives (;-)

My usual milk is 2%…but I can live with 1%.

Nancy and I drink dark, black coffee.

I enjoy a glass of milk abd it used to be 2% but when Freddy's was out of 2% I tried whole milk and I had forgotten how tasty it was. Since then I drink whole milk. Nancy is allergic to milk.?

So no worries about milk for either of us.?
