Re: kilo papa group
I heard on 27.555 t'other day tat kp was asking for $20 for membership and that it was a scam, came blaring thro from an IT station...Apparently KP members are by invite only? No membership charge etc....I think 26fb001 posted a msg on the chat page a few days ago along the same lines....

Re: kilo papa group
Yes apparently 3KPI/000 is a fake station, trying to make money from 11m. They're certainly not going to be millionaires
But they might tarnish a great radio group that's been around since the beginning of CB DX.
Knight Patrol still don't use the division numbers, that were invented by Alfa Tango (AT). The rest of us do, but KP have chosen to not use this identification. However, they have an excellent reputation as 11m ops, and go way back to the 1970's.
It would be a shame, a damn shame if some "fly-by-night" cast doubt on the great KP call sign.
3KPI/000 is reportedly from Italy and not TXing from 3 div in the first place, he will; be quick to ask you to QSL with a 1 div QSL manger. Which is probably himself
Be aware, although, I would say NEVER send money to anyone you don't know is real
