[WIham] License renewals

Tue Jun 24 23:37:43 EDT 2014

Something doesn't smell right here.  From the FCC website this license 
was renewed in 2011 and is valid until 2021.  Doesn't Glen even remember 
renewing his license?

KK0N is showing a Clyde, TX address.  I'm not sure what this this to do 
with  Wisconsin Amateur radio mailing list?

If Glen now lives in WI all he has to do is follow the directions on the 
FCC web site to change his address.

Answer your question Glen?  Based on all of this I'm not even sure what 
the question is/was?
