About 6hrs into this weekend's NAQP SSB contest and I realized that my name "Alan" is not the most efficient name to exhange, as there are so many ways to spell it. Could I use the name "Bob" or "Al" going forward, as either one is easy to understand and to spell, or do I have to use my name as it's entered in the FCC database? Thanks, Alan KK4CIS |

Absolutely! My name is uncommon among anyone over the age of 10 and it's all short characters on CW (and so doesn't contain a lot of power as well as flying by at 35 wpm). I tend to use "Bob," but I've used others. Somebody once mentioned forming an NAQP SSB team called "The Talking Eds." It's also common to memorialize a recent SK by using their name. |

Just don't change names in the middle of the contest! And I can "legally" use Ed as my name. :-) 73, Ed Hare, W1RFI ARRL Lab Technical forums moderator |
