Yes, I have heard of a hat beingcalled a lid.
.
I searched on DuckDuckGo for the capitalized word LID and the results were about
Mason Jar lids
Then i searched for Radio LID and read sone results about Telegraphers in the
early days using the term for a novice telegrapher and also about a telegrapher
that was difficult to read when he was sending code ..
Whenreading about the term LID in ham radio publications I always have seen the
three letters inUpper Case.
I believe the results for my search for radio LID took mt to an article on
StackExchange. (I think).
