OK, I admit I found this on another site, but, I think it is really strange.

The 3W prefix is assigned to Vietnam, I believe....

 

[DainBramage]

yes, it is.

from the link,........he actually holds/has held many calls

I haven't looked it up but it sounds like it may be a special operation. I wonder what the significance of that institution is. Former POW facility? Just speculating right now.

from what I can gather, He is basically a "political" prisoner, that hasn't been convicted of anything,...... yet. http://www.3w3rr.com/p/dossier.html

yeah, I know. they ALL say they are not guilty, but something in his case doesn't sound right.

He knows something, ............and the gov't wants him to rat someone out.

it seems that he has operated the Spratly DX-pedition (when his call was UF6F) on a couple of ocassions.

Yeah I read the link now. I was at work earlier today and didn't have time. The Vietnam callsign is to draw attention is what I think. He is sitting in a US detention facility claiming he is innocent and that the USA wants him silenced basically. Sounds like he is a cross between a nut-job and a fruitcake. I still haven't figured out the merits of this.

I looked on the Justice Dept. website and he has been convicted/plead guilty to numerous charges of credit card data theft, setting up a site to exchange credit card data and money laundering. I would probably not send him any info as with an amateur license much of your personal data is very publicly available. Your call however.

WOW!!!!!! this just keeps getting stranger and stranger.

Here is another link (that I found on another site)

That's pretty interesting, if everything is at face value.

I forgot to post the link earlier. You can see for yourself if it is face value.

If you do a search for him you will find all kinds of articles about him. He is pretty well known for all the wrong reasons it seems.

Sounds like he's where he should be.

They do keep him moving...

 

[loosecannon]

Why do they move him around so much?
