[SOC] Fwd: RE: Second Class Operators Club Call - W1SOC

[Bob Patten]

Ryan had a brilliant idea to add to our SOC call list - so far we have 
W0SOC, W1SOC, and W5SOC.  Are there any UK members reading this that can 
help Ryan in his quest for M0SOC?  Please read his e-mail below.  In the 
meantime, I'll comb the membership list for UK members and try and send 
him a list.

Bob,

I have just got through to Ofcom and they have said that the call sign 
'M0SOC' is available and that I can apply for it. However, there is a 
snag...

In order for it to be issued as a UK club call sign, I need two other 
English amateurs with full licences who are members of SOC to submit 
there details on the application. A club has to have at least three 
members in order to be licensed you see, else it will be an individual 
application. Is it possible you or some one from the club could send an 
email out to the UK members or spread the word via the reflector for 
others to contact me to see if they can help? Ofcom will hold the call 
sign for a week before it goes back in to circulation. There is also a 
£20 fee but I will quite happily absorb that.

Hopefully, we should be in business soon!

73,
Ryan
