59

Today I am a 59.
Being a Radio Amateur (or HAM-radio operator) I am very pleased with that :)

Because a 59 is the best signal report a Radio Amateur can get.
It is explained here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RST_code
5 = Perfectly readable
9 = Very strong signals

We can leave out the "tone" part because I'm not so active on CW ( = Morse code telegraphy) nowadays.
I will stay a 59 for some 8760 hours :)
