And then you throw in the mix all the people with voice ID's on their 
repeaters who go out and have radio personalities or voice over people make 
the voice ID's. What is that? More often than not it's a nonham recording 
the voice ID. I don't have unlicensed people on my radios personally, it 
reduces the chances of an oops going out on the air, when I was on CB radio 
I never used my real name and someone gave it on the air one day from my 
radio. oops. Anyway, there are so many what if situations there it's 
ridiculous, as long as the station is identified and you are right there if 
you're supposed to be, I don't think it matters.
