Just a random question for general discussion/entertainment purposes.... how many radio-related licenses do you hold? I'll start:

I have 5:
W2MAT - Amateur Radio (United States)
VE3MAT - Amateur Radio (Canada)
WQJJ237 - GMRS (United States)
WQSW839 - Business/Industrial (United States)
WSHS576 - Public Safety (United States)

Other random radio-related certificates, but aren't licenses, I hold include:

- RAC (Radio Amateurs of Canada) Certified Emergency Coordinator (ARES-related)
- Radio Technician Certification (Association of Public Safety Communications Officials [APCO] United States)

Ok I’ll play.
1 extra class amateur radio ticket.
2 license … plates on my car, that many think are a call sign. They are not. Think of arguably the most popular dual triode tube ever produced and you’ll be close. No tickets yet😜

Cheers
