FishinGary Posted April 9 Report Posted April 9 I have what is probably a silly question, but I searched and couldn't find the answer. What does this mean? Quote

Gil (WRUU653) found the right answer. A club can assign different numbers to each member to make it easier to tell them apart. I have not noticed anyone taking advantage of that.

Hoppyjr Posted April 9 Report Posted April 9 Make sure if using “Unit number ___” that you’re wearing a shoulder mic, a black basket weave belt complete with flashlight, knife, and keys. Also helpful if you drive an ex-cop car, as this helps complete the picture. amaff, WRCQ487, OffRoaderX and 1 other 4 Quote
WSHH887 Posted April 9 Report Posted April 9 So far the folks getting into our neighborhood network just use the appropriate call sign and first name. That way no one has to memorize all the call sign. We pretty much know who Sal is even if we have three. FishinGary, SteveShannon, WRCQ487 and 1 other 3 1 Quote

I’m guessing Rich added this so more than one person may join the forum using the same call sign. Nice I think that “Unit Number” has been there for a while, but I know Rich changed the site so multiple users sharing the same call sign could register. But I don’t think it uses the Unit Number. I could easily be wrong. FishinGary and WRUU653 2 Quote
