Default vanity call signs

I think that we need to stop whining and start DXing.


My 2 cents

You snooze...you lose. That's like saying that only people with Class 'B'
and above Commercial Drivers Licenses should be able to get vanity plates
for their vehicle. Generals and above had the same, if not more, time to
snag the call they wanted.




No, it's not like saying that at all, otherwise we would then all be able
to have 2x2, or 1x2, or 2x1 call signs like the Extra and Advanced class
hams.

Plus, the vanity plates on cars are not tied up for 12 years if the person
doesn't use their car, and the available call signs are in much more
limited amounts than license plates.

So maybe they should let the techs only have 2x3's vanity calls then.
