    Default Symbols under Callsign?

    I've looked all over this website for the meaning of the two wrenches under my callsign but I can not determine what they stamd for?? It's obvious for the moderators but not me.

    The Wreches &/or Screwdrivers are just Rank images. I changed to them from the old SWR meter ones before we moved to the new Forum Software. I'll update the FAQ at some point.

    And with that post Dan you changed from Wrench to Screwdriver

    Basically more posts more wreches & screwdrivers. (I choose them as a kind of reference to home brewing).

    Does anyone get up to soldering iron level? 10k posts = a scope?

    Yikes!!! Screwdrivers, I hope there not the Golden Screwdrivers! Hmmm, let me see there's so many RF coupling transformers and potentiometers in my radio that I have to tighten down. I hope the radio works better after I'm finished! HI-HI!!!

    Better get posting to find the higher level ranks images. If anyone find more appropriate ones or can deisgn them, even better.

    I liked my SWR meter ones, but the colours never really tied into the the theme we used.

    Andy, I could always argue that the Screwdrivers are actually Gas Powered Soldering Irons. Think I could get away with it???
