I do use my callsign and do use signature files included in the desktop program Outlook. But then I do the PC stuff for a part time living... to buy Elecraft toys!

It is part of reflector courtesy IMHO. I do not include my callsign on non ham reflector posts, nor do I sign with '73'. In other words, I do not have a signature file that attaches automatically - easy enough to do it manually. In my opinion relying on the email address for identification is not sufficient - so many email addresses are cryptic and convey little information. I am proud of my call, and have had it since I moved to Maryland in 1969 when I had to change it from W8DLB. 73, Don W3FPR On 4/23/2017 2:32 PM, Harry Yingst via Elecraft wrote: > > > It makes little sense to make a signature with a call sign when most > people outside of amateur radio would have no idea what it is? > > There is no need for a signature when the name is already in the sent field. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
