This is a World-wide medium.
Stuff that is in Redondo Beach, CA needs to have *SoCal* or some such
in the subject line.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Also, an announcement for something that happened two days ago
should have "Just Missed It" in the subject.

The W6TRW call got me a little closer than that! ;-)

Only slightly closer.
Judging by his call sign,
you'd think he was in the East of the USA
(I'm guessing he started there).

I think that just refers to broadcast stations.

In the Amateur Radio world, W6/K6 is California.

Nope. The '6' in the callsign denotes California.

The 'W' and 'K' (and 'X', I think) aren't reliable indications. For
instance KDKA is a torch in Pittsburgh PA.

Maybe not anymore. I used to think W7 - K7 etc., was Or, Wa, etc., but after I
let my license expire (W7SAT) it was grabbed by a satellite society in
California. For all I know, I can get my KL7BCQ license back and I'm in
Washington.

They *are* reliable indicators for commercial broadcasters.
KDKA is the ONLY exception (grandfathered).
Click to expand...
No, it's not the only exception (though perhaps they're all
granfathered). Glancing through the FCC license database of AM
stations, I come up with these exceptions:

American Samoa (which side of the Mississippi is AS on?)
- KJAL
- WVUV (apparently they can't decide either)

Missouri
- WMBH

IOWA
- WMI
- WOI
- WHO
- WOC

Minnesota (all in Duluth - East of the Mississippi on the map)
- WWJC
- WEBC
- KDAL (They can't decide either)

Illinois
- KFNS
- KSGM

Kansas
- WIBW

Nebraska
- WJAG

Oklahoma
- WWLS
- WKY
- WBBZ

Pennsylvania
- KDKA (noted)
- KYW
- KQV

South Dakota
- WNAX

....and a couple of *strange* ones in North Carolina
- DWZOO
- DWBTB

X is Mexico.
Click to expand...
Yes, the 'X' should have been 'N'. The US also uses 'A' for the Army
and Air Force.

C is Canada.
I ass-u-me'd the same system held for hams.

It is, just a mistook (and incomplete)

Giant electronics? I prefer the miniature kind.

Wrong. The swap meet was held on the morning of Dec. 25 as scheduled.
