Well, getting as many of my club memberships changed to the new call. In case anyone wondered
why I gave up N4JS, that I had for 25+ years. There are several reasons.
Originally, I had planned to retire to Florida. It looks like that will not happen.
When my Dad, W3IYQ, who was my Elmer, also, and started me off with my first license as
KN3HLU back in 1958, passed away in 1995, I though about eventually trying for his call,
but I wasn't in the 3rd district, and it was not a great CW call. While going through
some papers a month or so ago, I found his ORIGINAL license, dated October 26, 1926,
with the call 2AGN. So here I am, now W2AGN!

73,

The Ham formerly known as N4JS
