New call sign for me - MW0WML

Old Reflector

Hi all,

Just got the “pass letter” and applied for my new callsign. Tried all sorts of combinations and couldn’t get what I really wanted, but in the end I settled for WML (Winter Mountain Leader) as my friend Barry has IML (International Mountain Leader).

Might end up being a mistake as I now have MW0WML… MW followed by WM. Also I may cause some “chaser” fun with MW0IML and MW0WML both activating in North Wales a fair bit!

Anyway, it’s done now.

Big thanks to the North Wales Radio Society in Colwyn Bay for facilitating my exam.

Oh… and the RSGB have sent my 5MHz NoV through in double quick time.

Happy days!

Ah, didn’t look for that one…

Tried a few around my name and initials, plus some SAR ones and SOTA related.

Well done Gerald on the new callsign and hope to work you soon on 60m.

We still haven’t made an s2s yet.

Very well done Gerald - I am sorry I ‘nicked’ the IML call.
But, you can always use my call on any 10 pointers that you activate hi.

Again many congratulations.

He can use any call he has permission to use and the points go to Gerald not to the holder of the callsign. :wink:

Not to mention confusion with MW0MWL, Dave in Cardiff who chased my activation of The Myarth, GW/SW-035, today!

Well done in getting the full licence.

In reply to M0JLA:
Thanks everyone.

Hopefully try the new call out on Snowdon GW/NW-001 on Sunday. I’m up with a big group so it will have to be “smash and grab” while they take pictures of themselves and enjoy the delights of the summit cafe (if it is open).
