Hi Bob...

ICOM will send you the data if you send them a FAX of your MARS license.  Or
you can look it up on the MODS.DK site.

Which branch are you joining?  After 25 years of Army MARS operation, I
resigned.  They are no longer supporting the soldiers, just a lot of
alphabet soup agencies.  I didn't sign up for that, and the BS level got too
high.  So I quit.  My son is now in IRAQ.  I gave him an international phone
card.  It was cheaper too!

Mike.  KD9KC.  Ex AAV6EV.
El Paso, TX.
