We even have a BBR Ham Radio forum as well, for anyone that wants to find out more about it all..

»Ham Radio
It is commendable to be a Ham Radio Operator.

For what its worth.

Don't you and others Hams here feel a bit concerned posting your Ham Call Sign being a little to private?

And I know some Hams will respond your revolver is loaded and your ready if someone tries anything.

But there has to be some better judgement about what you put up here about yourself.

Notice BBR Members don't usually give out more than there first name in there postings as there sig.

After all George _ _ _ _ _ _ (KA3SGM)it is not hard to find out all your personal information your address first last name ect..

Not trying to pick on you but all Hams who post there Sign on here are subject to the same disclosure of privacy.

Sure anyone can find you if they know your name but if they don't they can't and I am not referring to the Police or Government they know you were your at. I am talking about not so nice people out there.

I am not putting mine up here.

Anyone can look you up.

Why make yourself an easier target.

Lots of nuts without bolts out there.

Be careful Hams.

Keep up the good work.

Comfort, trust level ?.. It's their choice.
You and I aren't as trusting ?..

I have used my Call letters here on BBR for years, and am on a 1st name basis with many other people that do the same.

It has never been an issue, even though some people like to hide behind an anonymous user name, I simply choose not to.

To each their own I guess ???

My user name used to be my first initial and my last name.

I changed it to my call about a year ago. I have no problem having my name attached to everything I post here. I stand behind everything I say.
