[PPRAANet] Need short serial cable for packet

[N0MUD at aol.com]

I don't know what Dick did but I've found out in  the past that if you type a 
call sign say into QRZ and when you insert the zero  with a slash thru it it 
will come back and say none listed.  So then I  tried it without the slash 
thru the zero and there it was.  This is just  something for all to remember as 
once in a great while we have a brain fade and  forget  to leave out the slash 
in the zero.  I have several times and  at my age I am forgetting more each 
day, hai hai.....Hope all is doing fine and  having a great Sunday.

Really strange, Wes.  I looked, initially, to see where he lived  here in the 
Springs.  When I went to the ARRL web site and typed in  N0ABC, it came back 
and said "No such call".  So, I went to QRZ.COM,  typed in N0ABC, clicked on 
Callsign.  Same results, namely "N0ABC is  not in our database."  So I 
figured that maybe he just got his  call.

After receiving your e-mail, I went back to check again.  He's  there.  I 
cannot understand why he didn't show up the first time.   Go figure.

I apologize to Dennis if there was any implied meaning in my  question. 
There wasn't.  Darned if I can figure that one out.  I  hope the whole day 
isn't going to go the same way.  :)

Thanks  for letting me know and forcing me to recheck.

Again, I have no  explaination as to why he didn't show up on either site the 
first  time.  I did send him a website that may have the cable he is looking  
for.  It's www.cablewholesale.com, and they have very reasonable  pricing on 
cables and a multitude of other stuff.  I know Radio Shack  gets an arma nd a 
leg for gender changes.  This place get $2 or so for  them.

Thanks for the information.

He's in both the  FCC ULS database and QRZ.com, not sure why you were unable
to find  him.
