I've been seeing this on this forum for quite a while now and I cannot make any sense out of it. Can sopmeone decode it for me? What does 73dkc9ih mean?
OT: I can't figure it out.

Where have you seen it, a search of the site gave me nothing. Orginally I thought it may have been CaseyK CB call letters.

Not even Google has it?
Maybe I'm just very naive and the joke is on me.

Then an 'e' was left out between the 'd' and the 'k'.
73 - Best Wishes
de - from (from the French word in case you were wondering)
kc9ih - KC's amateur radio call sign
For example in this reply

Sorry, stvsas, but that makes no sense whatsoever...
Bernie did a great job explaining it. It's a ham-radio thing. However, in your OP, you had it wrong. It should have been 73 de KC9IH. Translated into English, it would read "Best Wishes from KC9IH" CaseyK's ham radio license is KC9IH. Mine is AB0ND. If I were to use it, I would say "73 de AB0ND" Actually, if we were communicating by voice, I would just tell Casey "73 from AB0ND". We would use the "de" when using Morse Code (or one of the other digital codes) instead of sending "from"...
And from me it would be 73s de ON1CHJ. But because I'm only working on the 144MHz band and I'm very addicted to very low power operation (from 10mW up to 5W) it's very unlikely anyone of you over the pond will be hearing from me on the waves in short time.

CB'er ???
CB call letters??? Is that Citizen or Chicken Band radio?? Ham radio operators sometimes take offence at being called a CB'er , but I must admit I still remember my CB call signs.
He could have replaced 77 with 88. I personally like 807:beer: .
It's a Ham thing.
10-4 Good Buddy!! Keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down, catch you on the flip flop. got to go 10-100.
