Thanks, Mark!  I'm glad to have the correct info.

In ham radio contests, we usually use cut numbers, but only some of them.  
In this case, T=0, A=1, E=5, N=9. So "599 100" gets translated to "ENN 
ATT".  The other numbers are generally sent in full. There have been 
suggestions for other cut numbers but in a contest situation where your 
score gets penalized for copying the wrong thing, some people haven't been 
willing to learn the other cut numbers. When you're going at 40-50 wpm, 
you don't have a lot of time to think which letter corresponds to what 
number.  :-)
