[QCWA] Fw: Frank Lester, W4AMJ SK

[Croft B Taylor]

Hi Bob,

I know that within the last 5 years or so, Frank managed to get his old
W4AMJ call back.  He was W2AMJ at that time.

However, I am wondering about his original call.  I am not sure there
were prefixes in 1924.  My Father was licenced in 1922 and his call was
3QU (without a prefix).  I am not sure when the prefixes came into play.
