When I first joined I couldn't think of a catchy screen name. Soooo, I put together my CB radio "handle" (or radio name) that I've had for 30+ years and a call sign for when I talked on the sideband side of the radio. I used the 688 on sideband when I talked "skip" or outside of the 100 mile limit. (slightly illegal)
So I just combined the two for lack of anything better. Has nothing to do with being an auto mechanic even tho I've done a lot of the repairs on my own vehicles over the years. My radio customers thought the "Mechanic" handle was fitting because I was their radio mechanic for over 10 years.
That's all I got.
