Locked Meaning of a1, a2 and a3
Monty
Hello,
Occasionally I see the characters a1 (most common), a2 or a3 after the call sign in the band activity / rx frequency windows. I did a quick search of the message history with no luck and also looked in the manual by ZL2iFB. Just curious... BTW closing in on 200 entities on FT8 with wire antennas and low power. 73, Monty W3SB |

You have "Enable AP" Selected under the 'decode' menu . It actually can help you decode weak signals according to the manual. 73 - John - N7GHZ On Tue, Mar 31, 2020, 8:42 AM Monty via Groups.Io <W3SB=ptd.net@groups.io> wrote: Hello, |

Great thinking outside the box Steve! I must be getting slow in my old age because I didn't even "see" that when it was right there. The absolute best answer I have ever seen in this group. A little levity really helps these days. 73 my friend.

They chuckle too. 73 jerry km3k Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. -------- Original message -------- From: "Tom Loughney via groups.io" <aj4xm@...> Date: 4/4/20 09:35 (GMT-05:00) To: WSJTX@groups.io Subject: Re: [WSJTX] Meaning of a1, a2 and a3 |

Thanks Tom and everyone else. I was a little concerned that the millennials wouldn't get it. It really shows my (our) age(s).

"A little levity really helps these days. 73 my friend." AMEN to that !!! |

Actually if the call is /A1, /A2, /A3 those are the country codes for Djibouti, Botswana, and Tonga! But Lawrence Welk was also a good answer.
