Gentlemen and ladies,
We appear to be in the company of a very rare occurrence , a French pirate
.
The last documented individual aptly name 'Olivier The Mouth' apparently ran
off and hid on the ivory coast, not quite the governor of Jamaica route to
fame , nor is messing about with G 2 letter call sign's.

Don't hear too many "non-T9" reports these days...
Last weekennd in between DIYing, I had a quick listen on 40 m and went back
to a G6 two-letter call who was calling CQ Contest. I signed Foxtrot 5
Victor Lima Foxtrot. He came back to me:
"G9VLF you are 59 etc"
With a call of that antiquity, he should have known that G9 calls are not
issued to the ordinary radio amateur. Also, as he got my prefix wrong I was
not 59.
