Jay and the rest of the reflector community. I am sorry that you were
not fully informed about the new vanity call. The WIU club still holds
the original call W9YOL.
Over a year ago the club acquired a second call so that it could be used
to get the W9WIU vanity call.
It was agreed that with the history of the W9YOL call that is should
never be given up. I too have fond memories of operation using this call.
I hope this clears up the confusion.
