Yes many veteran operators believe they are clever when they attach a phrase like "''for license preservation''" to their identification. For example, "''AØNEW for license preservation''" which is no more necessary than saying "AØNEW for ID." The first is neither clever nor good operator practice.

Do you believe that other operators are confused why you are saying your call sign therefore you must explain that the call sign is your identification? Just state your call sign!Yes some veteran operators believe they are clever when they attach a phrase like "''for license preservation''" to their identification.
