ET2US/ET2 1961 Ethiopia

Operator: Dick Cormier K1KOM

The Ethiopian Parliament cancelled all American held ET2 licenses, effective 21 JUL '61, with the exception of ET2US.
This did not help the fact that Dick Cormier, K1KOM, had applied for his personal ET2 license upon his arrival in Asmara in JUL '59!
K1KOM eventually received his personal license, ET3RC, after waiting  28 months, and then he got to use it for 17 days, OCT 4 - OCT 21 '62, before leaving for Tehran and his quickly issued
EP2RC!
ET3RC QSL cards could be a scarce item!
It is a possibility that Dick created the ET2US/ET2 callsign to get around the slow arrival of his personal callsign.
After using the ET2US callsign from the club station location for over a year, he was then able to operate from his home QTH with the ET2US/ET2 call .
He used ET2US/ET2 NOV 27 '60 - OCT 4 '62.
ET3USA was first noted in DX spots APR '63.
K1KOM went SK JUN 7, 2019.
