WA4ELI HAM
✅ Never issued — WA4ELI 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.
1 pending application already lists it (first filed Oct 13, 2026) — see requests.
The FCC has no record of WA4ELI ever being issued.
