Nostalgic Amateur Radio Callsigns

Image
    Here is a great way to look up nostalgic callsigns that are no longer offered to be seen on the QRZ webpage. You also do not have to pay to look them up. If you would like to see who had your callsign 30 years ago, this is the best way to find out. Good luck! 73 https://archive.org/search.php?query=subject%3A%22callbook%22&&and[]=year%3A%221987%22
