[PVRCNC] NAQP SSB Team Nome

If you remember, at the last PVRCNC meeting we all had a good laugh at
Jim's story from one of the CWOPS sessions of an op who actually sent
"name" as part of his exchange. In the spirit of literalness, there was a
suggestion of forming a team for NAQP where we would actually use "name"
for the exchange. Well, the English "name" will be too confusing but no one
said we were limited to English. Below is a list "name" in other languages.
I limited the list to mostly languages which use the Latin alphabet since
squiggles and curlicues are a little hard to pronounce and spell out
phonetically. Feel free to Google translate to any other language you
desire.

If you would like to be a part of Team Nome for the coming NAQP SSB, drop
me a line and I will coordinate. It would be great if we all used different
"names" rather than the same one, so indicate your preference, not that
anyone is going to hold you to it.

For those offended by such silliness, we will now return to our normally
scheduled programming.

73, Mike "Nome" N4GU
