Aussie callsign options...?
#3
Many people find a lot of identity in their call sign. So being able to keep it forever may make a lot of sense. OK, personally I am not the best example, changed to OZ2M 1 Jan. 2000, but still.

In Sweden they managed to get well beyond the heydays of issuing new amateur radio call signs with three letters in the suffix, and only had to add a new general prefix some ten years ago. But the suffix policy remains. This while issuing call signs with unique suffixes across all call sign areas, i.e. SM7XYZ will remain XYZ even if moving permanently to the "2" area where the call sign will then be SM2XYZ. Short term stays are still SM7XYZ/2. Somehow I like this policy.
