Locked New Call, or Not


 

With luck, I'll pass the Extra later this month. The decision is whether or not to get a
new call.

I can read all the instructions around about how to manage this with eQSL,
QRZ, and LoTW, but there's also the real-world experience of dealing with the
change, retiring a call held for more than 50 years, and wondering if it would be
put into service again while I'm still pounding the key.

I'd appreciate any thoughts, probably best off-line to avoid straying too far afield.

Hi All,

Since this group is for N3FJP Software support, please send any replies on your thoughts on the pros and cons of obtaining a new call sign directly to Brian.

This thread is SK here.

Thanks!
