[SOC] OT: Vanity Callsigns

[Bob Nielsen]

Ain't nothing OT on this list!

I recall some discussions on QRP-L over two years ago when I was
looking into getting a vanity call (after procastinating for quite a
while).  There were many suggestions to pick the last letter such that
it ends with a dash, since trailing dots can easily get lost on CW. 
Having been W6SWE in an earlier life, I certainly agree with that
recommendation.
