Had an inquiry that sed his Dad's call was W10XEG

Before 1946 -- I think there were just call areas one thru nine.

Sometime around 1946, the 10th call area was established -- the zero
district, but was this ever the W10 area ??

Also the X in the suffix -- I thought was for experimental stations ???

Any old timers recall ??

Thanks

Post any answers here please

Thta sounds like an experimental station. They did have some odd calls
in those days. I have a copy of a license my Dad had in 1932 authorizing
portable operation at several locations. The Call assigned was W2ZZBZ !
