Interesting. The FCC does not recognize either WD8VLL or KD8VLL as a current
or past call in use, nor is there a Michael among the Farnsworth names that
do hold any sort of US license. 

Of course Farnsworth is interesting in that it's the name of the guy who
invented electronic television (Philo Farnsworth).

You may well be correct but, just out of curiosity, I did a

search on QRZ and on AnyWho.com and found that there is,

indeed a WD8VLL

Michael D. Farnsworth

1205 West Virginia Ave

Parkersburg, WV 76104

Do use caution. His  phone number is

Three Oh Four Four Eight Five Eight Oh Seven Four
