KA9SO HAM
✅ Never issued — KA9SO 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.
2x2 call: Advanced and Amateur Extra licensees can request it.
No pending applications list it.
Last requested Nov 18, 2015 as choice 4:
not granted, that applicant got K9SEO instead.
The FCC has no record of KA9SO ever being issued.
