It's shorthand for "Best Wishes". If you were talking to a lady operator, you'd use "88", which is "Love and Kisses".
And it's not supposed to be plural, as in "73's", but singular as just "73".

Is it OK to sign in as a shortwave listener?

I've been involved in radio since around 1978.
I've helped our local operators since that time.
I installed a 2 mtr repeater receiver at my work with a 220 Mhz link to the transmitter 3 miles away.
This was back in 1995 and I think the receive antenna was an IsoPole vertical.
The transmit antenna on 220 was a build that I constructed.
It was a simple yagi aimed at the main transmit site.
I don't remember what radis were used for the relay.
I do know the site used a old Kaypro machine for CW id.
I worked on it a bunch as the site owner was legally blind!

Today 28 years later, I'm still very much into radio.
I just never found the reason to need to talk.
So I'm very satisfied just listening.
I monitor almost everything.
I guess you could say from DC to Daylight!
I'm limited though as I'm in an apartment but they did let me put a discone up and I snuck a long wire in at the same time!
Plus I live on the top floor.
So monitoring is a pleasure.

Am I welcome here?
