"Most screenames seem to fit into two categories, really interesting names that were carefully thought up, or haphazardly chosen ones when you need a login that ended up sticking. Mine is in the second category.

If you where to google my callsign you would find out more about me than googling my name. :smile:
I would use my call, but on a gun related forum it might seem like just a little too much showing off.

Well shoot :shock: , nice to know you K5NRA, and yes---you should have used it. Ask the mods to change yours just as they changed evil-smurf's to Russell... which, by the way, is also my full first name.

Well, I'm also an amateur radio operator (Advanced Class), I guess you all guessed that by now!

A mutual friend of W05M's and myself (WB5FLQ) called me KW squared but that hasn't stuck yet.

I use my call sign on every forum that I visit, from Christian to Guns.
