Well, I decided to try for a shorter callsign and it was actually granted. There were 62 applications submitted, and I was the one that got the luck of the draw. N4BC … good! My first choice was N4DC, but I missed that one. I’m satisfied, though.
I think if I’d realized how much work it was to change everything over to the new callsign, though, I’d have thought twice. Email addresses, LOTW account, all the labels on all my equipment, the website, the memberships in various amateur radio organizations, a new callsign hat and badge, etc. I’m gettin’ there, though.
