why can't I post?

[junkyarddog911]

I wanted to post on the boards after I signed in (new user) and i get a message saying not allowed, what do I have to do to be allowed to post? http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

Some forums are only allowed to ham-members

I have been through this as well. And still cant post or start new threads in some rooms.

And it all boils down to making the mistake of not registering with my call letters and using a username.

Id rather a callsign holder be able to post anyway... I think some other sites dont mind though... If your ticket is on it's way, wait for your callsign to show in ULS then get your username updated.

Good luck!

I have the same problem.
Maybe some of us DO have call signs but prefer not to use them on public message boards.

Solution: Find another forum. People are less likely to be a pest if they cannot hide behind anonymity.
