I have not operated on, nor even LISTENED to, either a VHF or UHF amateur repeater for AT LEAST a year. Regardless of frequency band, one of my pet peeves is people who, "as required" and at "somewhere around" every 10 minutes, announce their callsign AND THEN FOLLOW IT WITH the words---- "for I.D."

WHY ELSE!!?? Would you give out your callsign if NOT for identification, whether for a routine "time to identify" or some other purpose?

Do you think that your "listening audience" of hoards are all of us SO STUPID that when you do give your callsign, WE CAN'T FIGURE OUT that you ARE in fact giving out your callsign, and for WHATEVER reason it might be, IT IS ULTIMATELY "FOR I.D." !!!!!!
