Re: [IRCA] US agencies and callsigns.

OK - not to nitpick too much but "N" callsigns are used by Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard.

"A" callsigns are used by Army and Air Force.

Some Army stations also use "W" callsigns like WAR and in the case of my own Army Corps of Engineers in Memphis, WUG2.
