KA4GQJ HAM
✅ Never issued — KA4GQJ isn't in the FCC's public license data (which starts in 1999) or the 1993–2003 callbooks, and nothing in it blocks a vanity request. Calls like this are usually granted when requested.
2x3 call: any licensee can request it.
No pending applications list it.
Last requested May 3, 2010 as choice 2:
not granted, that applicant got WA4GQJ instead.
The FCC has no record of KA4GQJ ever being issued.
