  Technician license aside....

If you look at 97.119  it reads: "Each amateur station, except a space 
station or telecommand station, must transmit its assigned call sign on 
its transmitting channel at the end of each communication, and at least 
every 10 minutes during a communication, for the purpose of clearly 
making the source of the transmissions from the station known to those 
receiving the transmissions."

The "for the purpose of clearly making the source of the transmissions 
from the station known to those receiving the transmissions" being of 
interest here.
In a stream of callsigns "DE" would serve to indicate the station of origin.

Other then simply transmitting your call in the required emission, there 
is nothing in part 97.119 that requires the specfic "DE"
You could as easily use,   AA5AU from WB9B,  As long as the origin of 
the signal is clearly stated.

As for DE...
I will continue to use it, Simply because it works.... And I'm 
accustomed to look for it.

73 DE MIKE WB9B
