Does anyone know how and why the "de" is included whenever the first name is used. ....as in "73 de Abu". I know "de" is Dutch for "the", but maybe that has nothing to do with it.
Close...'de' is Spanish for 'from.' Ham shorthand. 73 from Abu. An artifact of CW usage. All wrong, "de" comes from the french!!!!!!! language and has the translation to "from" and "of" in the english language. -- odo
sharing is caring.... :)
