Just another reminder that K4QPL has since the fifties been entangled with a cosmic dyslexic nexus. As one can plainly see, it does not require a next-door K4PQL to demonstrate it's tendencies.
You can always change to a 1x2 call....though I cannot for sure say whether the nexus is entangled with the call sign or the holder thereof. If the latter, whatever unfortunate call sign you picked would become affected likewise. You ever have anyone call you Mij or Imj?
73, Guy.

Thanks for the minutes. Sorry I missed the meeting last month. Who is K4QLP?
Interesting call. Or is that just more "inexacto" from "el Scribano'"?
Jim, K4QPL
