Last night I was listening to the call of AL1F calling CQ on 40 CW. A W7 answered him. The AL1F said he was located in blane Washington State. I thought the A L calls were restricted to Alaska hams but perhaps he was from Alaska and just kept his call when moving down to the lower 48. Does anybody know about such call signs for Alaska? I've hear an AL2 call sign during the contest, too.
