Post your Call Sign

WA6TKD in crazy California.

 Not very active on the air, but proud of my discovery of Ham Radio as a youth, I'm sure it set or at least guided a path in my life.

RF is just so cool.

Not a very good idea to do here. There are other places for that

You can say THAT again!!!

In Adelaide,  Sth Australia,  currently trying for,1296MHz eme but have fried my pre-amp,  obviously have sequencing wrong or emi up power supply.

OK, RF is just so cool.

First let me say Thank You Dave!!
My callsign is already posted.
While I have only been a ham since 2008, I was an RF tech from 1973 to 1994.
Sadly my carrier was cut short due to the partial loss of what eyesight I had.
Oh Well it was good while it lasted....
Besides I can still do some of what I use to do. (it just takes longer).

DG3HDA, thats me! Located in JN49, only active once in 3 months or something like that.

My callsign is already all over the 'Net,on QRZ.com,E-ham, VK Logger,& myriad others.
I guess I could have given myself a nickname like "Blue Wombat",but that sounded a bit "CB-ish".

some rf coaxial relays only have 30db isolation, and if you make 500 watt, you pump 0.5 watt into the preamp.
same problem with a septum feed.

OM2ATC here (had OZ2ATC for a while too). Not really active on the bands as I am more into building stuff than ragchewing - and an appartment is not very practical for a proper HF antenna.

Been too lazy to get a French callsign so far so only listening at the moment, but it will come one day

[djacobow]

KK6YRE, though I just passed the Extra test so will probably change to a 2x2 soon.

Updated 3/5/2016: I'm WE6EE now. It's got EE in it and it's sort of Wee! But maybe all those lone dits won't make for a good CW callsign.

[GreyWoolfe]

NW0LF here.  Licensed in 1999.  I like working special event stations and some DX.  I like building antennas and I have built a couple of transceiver kits.  I am also a club officer, club repeater trustee and a Volunteer Examiner Liaison doing monthly testing before our club meetings.  You can check me out on QRZ.com and see my 'little pistol' shack.

By the way, RF is cool!!!

[Howardlong]

G6LVB since about 1982.

Mostly space comms, as that's also my day job, although I'm much more of a slave to the soldering iron than to the mic or key.

I've developed and integrated several ham satellites and satellite payload hardware, as well as developing and implementing software techniques in telemetry coding and modulation schemes.

I have been the radio operator on the last 14 UK scheduled ISS contacts, including the one last Friday with astronaut Tim Peake who is on the station for the next few months. I am sitting at the bottom left in this video http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-35261160 , hardly my best angle.

Here is a picture of me in a clean room at ESA's ESTEC facility in Noodvijk in the Netherlands during an integration. I then went on to a second career as a dinner lady.

Greetings fellow Hams 
Callsign is OZ9AAR. I was once very active on EME (2M and 23CM) and HF bands. Sold all my equipment (including my 8 meter dish) some years ago but are slowly regretting it
Still have the urge to call out roadsigns in CW when I see them 
Currently deep into electronics and micros (been doing that for a living for the last 30+ years)

Attached picture of my old 8M dish and observatory (14" Meade scope)

[VK5RC]

Serious dish envy++++

Hi All..
OZ1LQB Claus in denmark here..
and yes hombrewing Rf stuff is cool

I am hesitant to post mine--googling it turns up my home address.

(Actually my old address.  I should probably update that with the FCC.)

You can always look up the address of anyone on the fcc site: http://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/searchLicense.jsp

And I'm KC6OCB

So do you not properly identify on the air with your call sign?  Hams and SWL will look you up.  I have had almost 1500 lookups on QRZ.com for my current call sign.  Everyone's call sign with address is on QRZ.

Of course I give my call sign when I transmit, but that's hardly equivalent to posting it on a forum.  One is an ephemeral transmission that will likely be heard by a small number of HAMs monitoring the local repeater and a few other random people with radio scanners.  The other is a written post that will be archived forever and linked to my username on here--a username that I use on some other forums as well.

Does it matter?  Probably not.  I doubt anyone is all that interested in pinpointing mathsquid's geographic location, but it's a privacy concern and I'd rather retain my current level of anonymity.

[AF6LJ]

Everyone's address can be found out; it's just a matter of how much trouble someone is willing to go to.

[N2IXK]

N2IXK here. Licensed since 1988.

Haven't been terribly active on the air in recent years, but due to change in QTH can now put up a reasonable antenna and am planning to do so in the spring and return to the HF bands.

Not really.  Depends if people list their address or not.  In PA land you can check if a call sign is in use or not, you cannot obtain the address from the government regulatory body. I.e. it is not like with the FCC in the US

KD0RC, Len in Broomfield, CO.  Licensed since 1970. I have been somewhat inactive, but am relocating my mobile HF rig to a camping trailer where I spend a lot of weekend time...
