I use my fake call all the time when I'm up to no good.

I heard what I thought was a pirated callsign on 20m one time. Turned out his call was legit but what would you think if someone told you his call was RG8U? :blink:
 
You wouldn't believe how many hams I have heard juuuuuust about (or do)give out their ham call while on the freeband or 11 meters. Maybe he goofed!

What's worse, accidently using your amateur call on freeband or using your freeband call on an amateur band?????
 
Try picking up the wrong HT microphone and calling a buddy on 2m you just met on the highway. The problem is that the HT microphone you accidentally grabbed is connected to the police HT and the telecoms radio officer and everyone else in the detachment hears you.:headbang I did that once while an auxiliary RCMP officer. I never lived down. :crying:

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
