WA5OAK HAM
✅ Never issued — WA5OAK 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 Jul 11, 2006 as choice 15:
not granted, that applicant got K9OAK instead.
The FCC has no record of WA5OAK ever being issued.
