A number of years ago my friend W6NIR aquired a well used TBX-6 and when he
had removed the front panel cover...
there where two 8 1/2" x 14" type written sheets of paper with headings
that read
Call Signs and the other Voice Call Signs.
Scraweld in pencil was " Copy for TBX"
It had a huge list of Carrires and Ships listed with their code names for
voice and CW. For example:
Essex. CANNONBALL. 8IR
Lexington. BALDEAGLE. 2PB
Enterprise. DODGER. 4FA
The ' Voice Call Signs' page had for example:
Call: SASSAFRAS
Meaning: FIFTH FLEET
CW call: 7XE
Call: VOLUNTEER
Meaning: ALL SHIPS ON THIS CIRCIUT
CW call: 9FB
W6NIR loaned me the papers and I made copies. The TBX with the original
papers was sold a couple of years ago.
Just thought I'd pass it along.
