Was W2OY the old fellow that used to say:

CQ, CQ, CQ, no chicks, no clicks, no space cadets, no ...

If so, he was quite a character; he would go through a whole series of those
kinds of things, and when he was done, there were only about two hams in the
entire world left that he didn't eliminate talking to in his spiel! <lol>

I just looked up W6HLH on QRZ, and the call has been reassigned.

I wonder if these new hams know how infamous some of these old callsigns are

that they are requesting?

I mean, for example, would anyone really want a call with the past 
reputation of W2OY?
