[SOC] Just in case you work a goofy call...

[Rob Matherly]

This from a recent ARRL Letter:

<---
* Canada authorizes special amateur prefixes: All Canadian Radio Amateurs
have been authorized to use special prefixes to celebrate the Golden
Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. From May 18 through July 18 2002, the
following special prefixes are authorized on a voluntary basis: XM1 for

So if you work someone odd, now you don't have any reason to scratch your head and
wonder what in the world's going on like I often do :^)
