I'm not trying to live off-grid at all. Way too late for that.

I'm trying to prevent this:

My wife and I are planning a trip across country. While mobile, I inadvertently mention that we're traveling and give my call sign. Any person hearing the call sign can cross reference via ULS database to my real home address. Knowing that we are not home, they burglarize the house. This kind of crap happens all the time on Facebook.

This is simple security, and I'm surprised I'm the only one who has mentioned it.

Anyway, I'm changing my ULS record to my P.O. Box.

Case closed.
