As others have pointed out, from a regulatory standpoint this is a moot
point as far as US amateurs are concerned.  The Rules have not required
such identification for many years now.  What you add  voluntarily is
your business unless the identifier after the US call sign conflicts
with another Administration's call sign block - the one exception is US
hams operating in Canada where the Canadian VE goes after the US call
sign rather than before.   Someday someone is going to get after those
repeater operators who add "/R" (Russia's block) after their repeater CW
ID - /RPT is OK, though

I like to say  "K2ASP on the move" when I pull out of my parking space.
