When someone submits info for the database, when the database is updated, where does that person's name appear as the contributor? Or does it? Assuming they left the "Check this box if you wish to remain anonymous" box uncheched.

Back in the tunkedradio.net days, the submitters who didn't wish to be anonymous were listed at the bottom of each trs page. When Lindsay started RR, the decision was made to create a single page to list the top submitters for conventional and trunked systems by quantity. You can find those lists here.

If you check the box your name will not appear in the submitters list and if you don't check it and you submit enough information, your name will appear. The box was put there because some people submitting information don't want it known they are doing it (ie maybe they work there or have inside info and don't want any trouble because they gave some info.)
