    Oh i know they are full of it but ya know that if your not in the click,your avoided like the clap....I noticed that if you dont have a call sign of letters n numbers as long as your arm and use the lingo your talkin to yourself..I cant be a poser till i know it..Beentold your call letters are even chked on to see if your legit before they talk ya up...childish bs if you ask me..

    Yeah, that's true. When you identified yourself by your call sign---there is so many programs to see who you are by your call sign, because it is in FCC database. They can see your first and last name, your address etc. Here is an example: click on this link and you'll see all of my info based of my call sign

    I know, but unfortunately it is FCC required. I am not thrilled either. But---I never treat people like crap, only because they are not ham operators. That's BS! If you have any questions and I know the answer---I'll be glad to help, man. And if you want to talk to DX, the best place would be channel 38 LSB.
