[Hallicrafters] OT USS Alabama

[Glen Zook]

That is news to the people of Mobile, Alabama!  The U.S.S. Alabama is anchored as a memorial ship in Mobile Bay.  Interstate 10 passes about 100 yards north of the ship.  I have seen the ship numerous times and have even stopped and toured the ship a couple of times over the years.

Now, here is the URL of the special events station W4A on the U.S.S. Alabama (from the ARRL who issue these 1X1 calls):
