What would be the reaction if Hams used 11m legally using their calls.

Lol
You can demand all you want.
I notice you deleted your posts, that can still be seen by staff.
Look, I will explain this one more time.
This forum is open to all radio users, if you have a problem with that move on.
If you can get past that then there are a bunch of good guys that like to play radio here.

Your choice.

What would the point of that be exactly? I'm sure those hams who drive the rusted out Suburbans with 45 antennas mounted on top, sides, bumpers and trailer hitch attachment ( one 2 meter rig, clipboard and scanner inside) already do that. I am a ham by the way. Extra Class since 1989.

P.S. At one time hams did use their call signs on 11m. ;)
At one time CB'ers used their call signs to. Mine was KEY-6303.

I think he has been here before and just wants us to know he is still around. ;)
 
It was a troll with a " I am better than all of you " attitude, no great loss.
On another note, I talked to a W6 call on channel 39 Sunday.
The guy was calling CQ DX with his legit call sign.
No big deal, said hello and moved on to the next contact.
Radio is Radio.

At least you can look him up and send him a QSL card if you want to.

Hearing people using ham callsigns on 11 meters seems to be more and more common. I maybe hear a station a month doing it, whereas back in the day it was unheard of...
I suspect it is newly minted hams who have unlocked radios and are unclear about where the ham bands actually are. You know, they hear folks talking and jump in without realizing they've strayed into 11 meters from 10 or 12.
They are probably trying to figure out all the weird callsigns they're suddenly hearing LOL!
