Unlike\nin many places like the continental US where the digit indicates the\narea where the call was issued, in Argentina the first letter after the\ndigit is used for that. LU5BOJ is a call issued for the city of Buenos\nAires (also known as \"Capital Federal\"), separate from the province\nof the same name that surrounds that city. It is like how the US\ncapital city Washington DC is separate from the surrounding states\nof Maryland and Virginia. The \"/O\" shows he was operating from\nsomewhere outside his home \"province\"; in this case, LU5BOJ was\nin Salta province in the northwest of the country.\n\nYou can see a map and how those indicators match up (thanks to\nmy friend Diego LU8ADX) at:\n\nhttp://www.lu8adx.com.ar/mapa/index.htm\n\n> That's the first station I have heard from Argentina on any of the birds.\n\nCongratulations! Maybe more will show up on HO-68 or even AO-7\nif equipped to work the linear transponders.\n\n73!\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\n\n(I was down there in 2004, operating briefly as LU/WD9EWK.
