Okay I also checked FCC.gov no dice. I've been reading about false decodes on #Reddit but consistent failure to decode the #callsign with the same characters? That's just weird reddit.com/r/amateurradio/comm #hamradio

A bit of #3Dprinting today: my #hamradio #callsign on a #MOLLE #tag.

They're made of the famous #BASF orange #PET I used for the #elkpak #antennas.

#hamradio

A wide view of the tag installed on a MOLLE strap on my 50L black tactical backpack.

The tag is "F1SLS" written in military style stencil font and appears in black thanks to the negative space.A closer view.The tag in my hand before the backpack blurry in the background.

Protip: If you use #MacOS, check that it didn't "help" by changing the capitalisation of your #callsign when you enter it into a web form.

Ask me why I now have a "Vk6flab" account ..

They don’t send you an Amateur Radio ID card or anything.

So I guess I have to make my own.

Weird #radio question: I’m US-based. Can I get a UK #callsign and use that exclusively?
I’d like to get something that starts with ‘G’ for reasons but I’m not in the UK.

My #amateurradio #callsign is all over the place, license plates, hats, etc. It's a symbol of an accomplishment. I want our students to feel the same way about their callsigns. Why should they have to hide theirs, while the haters display theirs? 😡

I have been getting some inquires about a new prediction on my vanities site, "Blacklisted by FCC".

I noticed that there have been dozens of applications for the callsigns N6ER and N1GI over the last year, but they have not been assigned. I concluded that something was odd in the FCC's vanity #callsign processing.

When I asked the #FCC Helpdesk, they responded stating that "These callsigns are not available to any applicant". So this appears to be a new state, with these callsigns blacklisted.

I've also told the #students stories about how attending an #IEEE #STEM #education #conference with my #HamRadio #callsign displayed on my badge started conversations and helped me meet interesting people (potential clients 😜 ). But they give me that "ok boomer" look 🙄

Looks like #AirForceOne is on its way to #NornIron.
Bit of a cruel #callsign, though.

@dj3ei @AmateurRadio I've no callsign either, that's why use a Citizen Band callsign. There is a list of country prefix for CB: 11meters.wordpress.com/cb-coun

Just got my #AmateurRadio #callsign. I'm surprised how eager I was for it, considering it'll be a while before I have a chance to even try it out.
