We should stick to spotting / logging Legal suffixes the way that DXB handles /AM is incorrect because it is a legal suffix when used CEPT style AM/ei6iz is potentially EI6IZ operating under CEPT in spain (prefix EA) whereas EI6IZ/AM should be logged as EI6IZ/AM (aircraft mobile, prefix ei)
It handles /MM as maritime mobile and MM/EI6IZ as cept operation in scotland. this is correct it handles probable /p /M correctly and /1 , /2 etc as suffixes AM needs fixing /140 /qrp /LH /IOTA etc are not legal suffixes, should not be logged like this 140 LH123 qrp etc all belong in the notes section Calls Should not ever be spotted on the cluster system in this format and should most certainly not be sent in your CQ call in this format. by all means include this information if you want in your CQ but please not as a suffix, It's not a legal suffix and it does not belong there. You may be a QRP station but it is not your suffix 73 Brendan Minish On Wed, 2009-09-09 at 16:56 -0800, Gary AL9A wrote: > Just a heads up to those who may have logged some "/140" stations during the > last week of the Hiram Percy Maxim special event.
