Database Administrator

[Leslie13ff]

How do I go about becoming a Database Administrator within RadioReference for the State of Arkansas? I would like to help build a bigger and better database that is reliable and helpful for everyone!

That's an excellent question for @wa8pyr .

Frankly, with only one submission and one forum post over the past five years since you've joined, it would be unlikely that you would be selected to be a database administrator.

If you want to help make the database better in your area, you can participate by making submissions for the existing admins to process. That's how it's done.

Don't hold your breath. I've contributed just shy of 700 RRDB submissions to date, have documented many conventional & trunked radio systems in my area & places I've visited, have yet to receive the proverbial phone call to be among the "elite" However my local db admins often turn to me for feedback if they catch wind of any potential developments in my area. Work with them & get to know them, then who knows what the future will hold

They called but you didn’t answer and they moved on to next person.🤣
