history[edit]

I was recently reading an article in an old radio magazine about call signs. It seems that at the time, or at least the way the article is written, the main use for call signs is for DXing. Also, that it is sometimes hard to understand, and that they should use a phonetic alphabet to make it easier. Then the article goes on to say that in the near future, there will no longer be a need for call signs. I suspect that the authors would be surprised to know that they are still common almost 100 years later. Gah4 (talk) 11:13, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
