ZL4 Callsigns - Index to various sorted lists.

This is a comprehensive list taken from many sources and entered into a database.   The calls range from those issued at the start of licensing in 1923, through the years into the new millennium.

Brief information is given as to when the call was issued and when relinquished where this information is known.   The location of the operator at the time the license was issued and any other known callsigns that person has held.   Information is only as good as the publications it has been recovered from and dates may vary by a few months in some instances.
