Long Description:
On December 14, 1978, the FCC issued the repeater call "WR5ACM."
The female voice was then changed to announce
"WR5ACM..Repeater..Mt. Taylor." That call was in effect for several
years until the FCC no longer licensed repeaters. The club voted to
change the call to honor the repeater trustee, Ken King, by using
his call "WB5EKP." This remains the call of the La Mosca, Mt.
Taylor repeater -- one of the best repeaters in the world.
